there was a great demand for them as it turned out, i had wayyy too many people PM me about them without me even advertising that im selling them, so i sold them to a gentlemen on the forum here, in Hawaii.
i knew i would get another set of black wheels, and if i sell these, ill get another set of black ones hehe
so far so good, i love the new wheels.

btw, washed the car today, and tried to dry it with a leaf blower. car has way too many coats of zaino, so it took me no more than 5 minutes to dry it, all the water just slid right off, and another minute per wheel. i am never again hand drying the car
plus, got a free leaf blower, 200mph

+1 on the leaf blower!

DJ, I have a few tips too. Blow off the driveway before you start, so you stir-up less dust after washing. And, blow out the front air vents before the dirt and leaves and etc gets wet, this makes cleaning the front radiators more efficient.

thx Bill.
i have mesh grill in the front, so not much makes it in there anymore, its black and cant really be seen but does the job, as i dont want to take all that stuff apart again. it was ugly in there with all sorts of stuff that i would never guess would make its way in the front.

I was asking to see if I could buy them. The 17" Sport Classic's are really rare and desirable. Any way Happy B-Day to your Car!
