Work wheels are cheap.. to me at least. VIP charged 6k for a set.. without tires/ added options.. So they were boring for the money. Good wheel. Just not what i want anymore..

Thanks....the wheels need meatier tires, the chrome needs to be redone, and the rears could use another 5mm of spacer.

What I'll probably do is use the tires off my OEM set on these wheels, use these tires on for a set of 18"' wheels I have for my wife's S2000, redo the set with some powdercoating this next spring, while I get my set of 19 rezax ready through the winter....

I think I'll start a 'build' thread...there wasn't supposed to be a 'build' on this car seeing that it's supposed to be my daily driver I use for professional appearances.

Couldnt decide if I actually wanted one but its here..




This is the first roof spoiler I have purchased from Oem.thing and I will begin by saying that I am impressed.
The color is almost spot on, not yet 100% because it hasnt hit the sun but I know it will.
The shipping package is very well put together.
They include an neat installation kit consisting of cleaning wipes, adhesives, and best of all red 3M Tape. More than you need and the real deal, no knock off 3M.
Instructions come through a very well put together booklet. (I hope most people dont need this)
Overall I say for the money it was a great purchase.
