Ordered a staggered set (20x9 & 20x10.5) of Vertini Drift’s (Volk SF rep) in matte black.

Should look 10x better than my current setup. (XXR 521’s)

Just going to swap over my tires as they still have some life in them.

I'm a fan of your current setup, I like multi-spoke designs like that

I like them as well, but time for a change. The front right is bent slightly and I’ve always been partial to 5 spoke or split 5’s, so we will give these a go.

Play with a tad more aggressive offsets, but no stretching for me.

Coupe 6MT Premium RAS
I'm tempted to give Destiny 2 a shot but... I don't know how I would even fit a new game into my schedule, I barely have time to make the guild raid on the weekends.

Those pictures blizzard posted yesterday on their facebook account of Cayde visiting blizz HQ were pretty hilarious, every photo of him with a dog it looked like he was CHOKING the dogs. Just bad camera angle and facial expression of the dogs but still funny looking.

Sure thing bro, lemme know when to send you my paypal or venmo info so you can gift me $865

Amazon Amazon


Edit: besides, the rig initially came with two (now 8 generations-old) GTX 295's in SLI with a combined VRAM of 3.5GB. I removed one and unplugged the other (to cut down on noise & power draw) and replaced it with a single passively-cooled Zotac 1GB 630GT (4 generations old). Unfortunately, Destiny 2 running on that thing crawled at 10 fps... so I scoured the webs, emailed a popular magazine and waited a couple months to get a reply (which I did, in print no less! ) and settled on this particular one. It's got 6GB of VRAM, and is current-gen.

Ah yes, forgot about the pricing issues with the 1080. I have a 980 TI and got a stellar deal on an open box return when it came out. 1060 will get the job done for sure for destiny. Enjoy!

JDM Porsche fitment hollow spoke Enkei RC5. For my G


Porsche adapters are one of the best things I ever bought for this car. SO many options.


These wheels are stamped July 2001.. in original condition, I can handle a few bumps and dings for 16 years old.

Are centre-cap replaceable or you going to run like that?
