I got New Rims too!
Wednesday, March 01, 2006 9:45 AM
Okay, so actually I got these rims back in December, then got one stolen out from my carport... I was very pissed.

But now with the addition of a better alarm (factory one sucked) 2 DIFFERENT sets of Locking Lugnuts and the purchase of a new 4th wheel I got new RIMS.

These are big! 19" x 8"


With a nice offset so they fit nearly flush with my outer fender edge (no hanging out of the car).

Let me know what you all think.

Not installed yet...and I'm not sure the specs on the offset, but they go on this week. I'll take pics once they're on.

Unless you have a custom offset those 8 inchers will stick out because my 7.5's stick out just enough to splash all kind of crap down the side of my car lol.

btw, those look sweet. I like em.. Hurry and get pics, my next set I want 18x8's.. I love wide tires

I got them installed last night, and I LIKE IT.... Feels so much better on the road then the track tires on steelies I was borrowing.

Hopefully whatever bastard stole my wheel before will leave me alone this time so I can move forward with the rest of my car.

Pics will come later tonight (even though the car is filthy).

Okay, its later tonight and I don't have pictures up... cause my camera's battery is DEAD! Woudln't even turn on enough to tell me the battery was dead.

So update pics tomorrow.

Sorry, but here's a pic of my hood I updated earlier.

Here's another update... but not pics of the wheels on (I didn't get to take the pictures yet).

Here's the hood/front bumper I am getting made. Yes, I realize there already is a Turbo Sport hood, but this one is styled to be mor like the original (the other copies are too narrow) AND it has the eyelids already molded in.

Tha front bumper is a design I'm modifying from a Jetta bumper. The fit is close and will really accent the hood well I think.

wheels look liek they'll look awesome on the car, hood will too. The bumper, well I'll jut save judgement until it's on, it looks like it has potential though.

BTW, I love your sig.

Okay, finally my batteries are charged and I took some pics... but I got off work a little late for daylight pics.

Anyways, here they are.





I know they sit high, but I'm getting some K-Sport tunable dampers made for the J-bodies, and I'll be the test fit vehicle. So in the next month or two I'll be sitting better.
