Thanks! Yes, got them all installed at TWS. Recognized the parking lot? lol. But actually got the wheels directly through Jonari, their new wheel line called Wald Sport.

What do you guys think of the Vlene kit. A little pricey, but damn it looks soooooo good!. I will probably go with the wald, rando, TTE , or some combination. At least that way I wont have to trash the clear bra I have on the bumper. I can get a lip done and have it clear bra covered.I think the Lexon front lip looks super sporty

I love the TTE... It doesn't change the look of the car that much but still ads that extra something.
