New rims..FINALLY!!!



There are the new rims....I wore the stock tires down as low as I felt safe on them. Just got them as an early XMAS gift last Friday. I really like the LP look and feel with the drop. Now if I can silence all the winter squeaking and creaking.

what drop? You have some big wheel gap there. Wheels do look good though. Just get that thing dropped a little more to get a better stance and you'll be set.

Those are very nice looking wheels (and I dont say that too often) They are very clean, simple and nice. What are they by the way?

Thanks to all. There is a drop about 1.1"(GoldLine $100+/-), although the ride is a lot stiffer, from them, the drop isn't the best. There is more of a drop than the pic leads on. I am taking the pic low, and I am on a incline so the weight shifts back on my drive way. I will get som more pics soon hopefully on level ground. But since the struts are squeaking and reaking and such(very annoying)...I have to started looking at the tien/NEX coilovers to buy in the summer time.

The rims are Alt Racing> SoniX, and I just got the cheapo tires that came with them NanKang II or something like that..(but they seem to ride really nice!!) I will be keeping track of the wear over the next year and hopfully start another post/review on them(I am a moderate driver rather than crazy So hoping for at least 30K)

You can't tell from that pic, but the next thing I need to do is paint that ugly drum and caliper(black). Thanks again to all

Dont get white rims, theyre too hard to keep clean, and black is too hard to see sometimes (in photo), get gunmetal black, those are nice in my opinion, the ones im looking at are Konig rizen
