Default It's that time again, new wheels for me :)

Well I have bad and good luck when it comes to wheels. Had the car for almost a year now and on my 4th set of wheels. Had a few matters come up. Well recently my wheels where damaged and I managed to actually get reimbursement for the damages. How good ? Well I'll let the pictures speak for themselfs. I left them in JPG as I am in love with our new DSC-F717 at work

after


19 inch Blitz Silver Z3s now 19x9(got rid of the 8s and love it). and 19x10 in the rear. Don't bash me for now having a lowered car, Teins should go on next month.

I also have to ditch the gold package

Here's a close up of the wheels to show the difference between regular silver and blitz silver.

At least you don't have hideous pinstripes that can't be taken off. Your 19s fit really well.

Looks good even w/o a drop. The 717 is a good camera, I have a 505 right now and its pretty good already.

Rims and tires are going to run you about 4,000. 19 inch tires are not cheap as most know I think I paid somewhere in the 1200-1400 dollar range for my T1S.

Yes I do have a annoying pinstripe (gold at that) that is painted and clearcoated. It's going to stay for a little while until I have the money to repaint the car and put the AC body kit on (I'm estimating in the 8-9k range for everything done right).

The fronts are 35 series, the backs are 30 while this may be thin to most I drive VERY carefully and the roads around here don't seem to be that bad.
