    New Rims

    Couldnt deal with the stock rims.
    Went for some Dick Cepek DC1s in Silver and blk.
    17x9s and some Michelin 275-60-17s.
    Turns out the new rim/tire combo actually weighs less
    then the stock wheels and tires.
    Michelin is known for having less heavy tires then most
    manufacturers out there. Combined with the Cepek wheel
    it came out to be a nice package.

    Looks good...always good to lose weight, particularly at the corners

    Looks pretty good, now all you have to do is hit that grey cladding with some mothers back to black and it will match the black on those new rims!

    Damn, reminds me.... I wanted to get my Enkei's done before this winter. Wanted the spokes powdercoated a bronze/gold, leaving the outer lip silver. ala-Gram Lights style. Ah well, looks like I am down for the wait again.

    Nice looking wheel Az. Kinda like a shuriken/glaive thing going on in there, heh.
