^ if i had known that i was gonna wrap the car white before i got the wheels, i probably would have gone with the chromium black. It would have gone more with the white/black theme it has going for it now

How much did it cost to get your entire car wrapped? What's the life expectancy on something like that? Your car looks TIIITTTSSS BTW!

i got it wrapped for a very generous discount from a friend. He normally charges upwards of $2200+

usually it should last a couple years depending on the quality of the material you choose to go with and how you much care you take in keeping it clean. but like a lot of other things higher quality = higher $$$


Thanks to everyone for the compliments on the car

Funny that they do, only the bolt pattern is different. I like the silver on white, but I think i'll be the one to get the gold 526's on IP. It's one or the other.

If anybody has gold staggered 526's on ivory pearl, post some pics!

I'll be getting these 526's in the next few months. Almost due for new rubber. Gonna save the cash for the wheels and buy them together(wheels and rubber). Getting the black chrome in 18s to go on my '06 sedan. Just not sure which offset to do. I have stock wheels on 20mm spacers right now. I'd prefer to fix the offset with the new wheels and ditch the spacers. Not wanting aggressive and stretched. Also don't want to roll or pull fenders.

For a sedan, you should always roll your rear fenders in my opinion, there isn't much clearance without it. I rolled my 03 sedan's rear to fit 20x9.5 with 35mm offset with square tires with no camber and it fits perfect. Probably could get wider rims with stretched tires

Stock offset is 42 right? With 20mm spacers should put the offset at 22 correct? I don't rub at all with Z springs and stock toe and camber.

I guess that would be correct/ anybody with more knowledge can chime in--- your's is 17x7 stock? or 18's stock? Here's a guide on fender clearance:

I had 17's originally. I now have 10 spoke 18's in chrome. Same offset as the 17's from what I got off the back side of the wheel.
