18" HyperBlack Torques from SubyDude!!!

I got my new wheels yesterday from SubyDude's group buy. Joseph and Zoeb at SD were absolutely awesome in handling my purchase and they take a real interest in the customer and the customer's car.

I got them wrapped in Falken Azenis RT-615.

How did you get the center cap to fit?

My 17" would not fit.

Did you really (yes, we have an "underline" feature) waste your time to post that comment? Either way, it's fixed...just for you.

The center cap fit with no problem, though there was some debate ahead of time, it seems as though the 18s have no problems. I have a set of old domed centercaps laying around. You'd probably want to sand and paint them but they'll fit the Torques, just let me know if you want them.

Just waiting to close on the house before I install the Hotchkis, unless I get coilovers before then .

I am pretty impressed with the tires so far, they arent as edgy as the A046 but I expect the sidewall to stiffen up a bit...but I don't have any complaints at all, esp for the price.

Thanks. I somehow feel you're taking my comment rather too seriously. Please don't.
[also thanks for the pointer re:underline. I will use it when I choose to.]

Wheels look good anyway. They even put the tyres on right, with the yellow dot on the valve and everything...

Sorry, I was just playin'

If the yellow dot's for the valve, what is the red dot for? I was trying to figure that out this afternoon.

WOW....you got the tires and wheels already, that was fast
Mine shipped yesterday. They said something about domed bronze center caps
I might have to borrow yours next Saturday for HIN 'till I can score some like you have. I agree Subydude has been great. I'm sure they'll hook me up with the right ones. Car looks awesome!! We still on for tomorrow if the weather clears??
