Talking New Shoes

Just thought I post a few pics of the rig with my new tires and wheels courtesy of Need for Speed via Wheel Experts. Can you say giddy up!

I cannot be happier with the aggresive look and handling improvement. Top shelf. I know the questions are comming...What's next?? Coilovers, lip, intake...hell who knows. It's only money honey (she seems to disagree)

But for now I am very pleased.

HRE's, thats what Im talking about!! But PLEASE, PLEASE drop her down asap!

Great choice of wheels, congrats!

Quick question for you, hows the finish on the full polished HRE's? Would you consider it almost as shiny as chrome? I have chrome and IM thinking about switching to polished, thats why Im asking.

exactly! i never would've considered HRE in the past, because paying +$1k/rim is too much when it looks smaller, but the R makes it all different.

regardless, how can anyone truly knock you?
