very nice man, very nice. what kinda tires you gonna go with?

where do you work btw, if you dont mind sharing?

It comes with Hankook tires. Here's the description of the wheels:
18" Carrera Lightweight wheels. Sized (2)18x8et 50mm and (2)18x10et 47mm. These wheels are made with exact specifications and are of excellent quality. These wheels are almost as light as the originals and are stronger. They are TUV approved. Silver and black caps are included.

Wheels come mounted and balanced with Hankook K104 tires in 225/40/ZR18 and 265/35/ZR18 ready to install.

I was going to get the wheels only from other seller but it might take me awhile before i could get tires for it and I want to install it right away

Yah, I work for CSAA/ IT Operation Supervisor

And all I got was new high heels.

Sigh.............:ah:

Hey Unk...

Why the color crested wheel caps? I'd personally stick with the black & whites it comes with. Anyway if you do get the color crested ones PM me and let me know what you want for the black & whites.

BTW Sweet Wheels. I love those.

@ unkle,

I have the same wheels on my car. You could check them out at the meet tomorrow if you want.

great wheels....I like the colored caps and am picking up some 19's sooner than later....

hey Blink, all that effort with the Zaino and you didn't get an updated pic for your signature? It looked like the car was really shining

@ TriG..the color crested ones will match the color of my car but if I do received it and decide to change it, I'll PM you or if you have colored one prolly we could just swap it

@ Blink..fasho, I will definitely check it out plus, i might need you to pull that freaking snorkle of my Box for me, dude..hehehehehe!

Yeah I could help out w/ pulling it out. I hope you don't have virgin ears though,the thing is a PITA to pull out.

The center caps that come with the wheels suck! They are stickers..............Thankfully I had my colored ones from my 18" Technology set.

dude, i have to bit my tounge the other night while pulling it out coz' my 2 son is right next to me

gotta look cool in front of my kids eventhough they have no idea that the snorkle is kicking my arse....

i kinda figure that it was going to be a sticker, chances are i might end up getting a color crested one...
