Post by: phil_long on September 29 2014, 11:57:25 PM

Finally got around to putting these wheels on after a year. I really like the look besides the fact that the car is dirty. :D  I went with 18's all the way around. Still got a long way to go tho

Good point. I have the stock springs and shocks on there right now. The stock springs are pretty toast though so it's pretty dropped now. Lol

the wheels are xxr 531. tuner wheel(BMW offset) so Im running some high quality american made adaptors custom built for our cars(Adapt-It USA). the wheels shipped to my door was $585. the adaptors shipped were $212. These adaptors are the truth and currently being used on 1400hp dragsters. I was impressed with the customer service at that place. Im also impressed with how much better my car handles
