I am happy you received your wheels and possible get them on before next Saturday.

You got it! Lunch on me next time I see you. It works out 'cause I think I still owe you from the brake job you did for me on my mom's old RX.

Anyone know a place where I can mount the tires on the wheels? They are reverse mount wheels. I would need a guarantee that they won't scratch the wheels. Thanks.

What's a reverse mount wheel?

Tires are in, but I am probably going to wait before the weather clears up. The 10-day forecast shows snow for sunday, monday, tuesday.

Tire is mounted from the inside with the wheel facing down.

Do you believe in Magic?

Well I hope you do...

Wheels are on the car, but JIC Magic coilovers are not installed yet. Here is a pic to tie you guys over. I am on F-Sports right now. It looks great, but I want a little lower in the front. I will be selling my Fs soon (FYI).

You got the color combination perfectly. Is there ANY way you can take a closer pic of your wheels? I want to see how much room you have in the front and rear with F-sport+19" wheels.

Thanks Brian! Hopefully it doesn't rain on Sunday. I will be there around 1 or 2 PM if the weather is decent.

Here you go. Locals get first dibs on my F-Sport Suspension. Please PM me if you are interested. I will have them off the car this Saturday. They have about 7k miles.

Vik,

Hmmmm, those JIC's look familiar.

Everything looks just sick!!!!! I can't wait to see it in person with the JIC's. How big of a smile did you have on your face when you were riding home?

Looks great...Keeping my fingers crossed for this Sunday but the weather doesn't look too promising.
