Rolling on 17 Pennies

I honestly don't care if anyone hates the wheels, because to me.... They are pure hotness. Instead of a polished dish, they have a painted dish. And not 1 but 2! Thats right 2 polished lips. The main lip and the rim to spoke lip.

I tell ya, I feel in love with them on the wall, but I think I became obsessed with them when they were on the car.

Damn that looks good. That car is coming together very nicely.



I had something really funny to put here but it was too long.

Thanks guys.

Not sure if I wanna go with the Z/LS skirts to be honest. I've kinda grown to like just having the front lip. Its a little different than everyone else's. Most people are missing there lips, as to where I'm missing everything but. lol.

the double lip is definitly cool looking, but it makes the rim look much smaller then it really is. Other then that, they are the hotness.

I think they look pretty hot. I agree with the guy above about looking smaller, but only like an inch smaller, and that's no deterrent. Your car is starting to look pretty hot being one color now and with the edition of wheels. Nice work man.

I do have to say though, somebody needs to paint some calipers and brake drums.

Not my cup of tea as far as wheels go but to each their own.

First time I heard that. lol.

I went with this tire because its close to the factory wheel diameter. This way, my speedo and stuff doesn't get all goofed up. Also because its provides a little more tire for grip/cornering/bumps.

its a 215/45 tire.

Thanks for the kind words everybody.

I love it as well, The only thing that takes away from the clean look of the whole thing, is the tread on the tires, it bothers me for some reason.

Aside from that, I love it!

I still got my stock LS SIDES! $50 plus shipping and they are yours. Hell, put a full tank of gas in your car and come get em. It will be ALOT less than shipping them.
