The car looks very nice...What size wheels is he running and tire sizes...Tirerack offers a great deal on those wheels and I think superjoe has the same ones...

I agree with SuperJoe (are you still the DIY king?)...the tires do look like 235's...whatever size it is, it's a little too small for that width...it looks like he could go the next size up (and should)

Looks nice, but I think those rims look a little too close to stock and I like rims with nice lips (just like I like my wom...uh...nevermind)

Anways, it would be cool if Millie made a real 2 or 3 piece version of that rim....I think it would look a lot better because then you could have nice deep polished lip...and those bolts would actually do something besides being just cosmetic....but I think they only make 1 piecers...

The car doesn't look dirty to me...

actually manaray they do make 2 peice i've just seen them in a recent magazine (where they were showcasing the EVO's) and they had a new 2 peice of my rim with a polished lip...looked really nice


Well i'm trying to be KING...i'm doing something that will destroy GlobeCLK's reign (Globe has definetly been here a lot longer than I have, i can't just take his crown he has to give it to me or I have to have "the people" give it to me!!!)

pssst! Hey, for $20 I'll give you Globe's address...you can go there and...uh, take care of "business" ! Sorry Globe, you only offered me $15 for SuperJoe's address...

Hey, do you have a picture of that 2-piece? I wonder if they're going to do more of their rims in 2-piece...that would be nice...nice lips are ALWAYS good to have....

Ok, Globe, for that amount, I'll go take care of SuperJoe for you!

Do you know what kind of SICK mods I could do with a million bucks? Like converting my GS430 into a 900HP Nissan R34 Skyline "Blackbird"?

Believe it or not, even with a million bucks, I would still keep my GS430...granted, I would have a "couple" more cars, but I would not get rid of the GS...

Hmmm, I wonder if my new color printer can do a "faithful" replication of certain "documents"... ???
