Very nice! 500 miles though? That's crazy. I drove like 300 miles for my wheels and I thought that was a bit excessive, though totally worth it. Car looks great though.

Re: got my rims on foo

well 250 to and back eh it was pretty fun.

Found out in dallas they call a hot n spicy a mc chicken sandwich lol.

I have a set of KYB shocks coming in and a set of either the Summit racing springs or Hotchikis springs I'm looking for a at most 1" drop and those seem to fit the category in both price and specs.

I'm also thinking about getting the lip powdercoated the blue of my car. Any thoughts on this guys?

SS rims...Very sexy. Decent price on those wheels, but not as good as what I paid for mine.:cool:

Re: got my rims on foo

Nice, but if I had them, I'd polish the lip on each one and install chrome lugs. Just something to break it up a little bit.

OR...painted-to-match (blue) lug caps and a blue lip.

Don't get me wrong, the rims are nice, but if your car isn't toally black, then I think you need something to break the black/blue contrast up a little more.

Re: got my rims on foo

very nice, your driver fender looks bent from one of those pictures..the second picture looks like the fender sticks out more than the door. I've had that happen to me before, firestone lifted it on the fendors and bent them out. Luckily i caught it and made them fix it.

but the wheels look great, the blue lip would look good, or a polished one.

yeah I'm def gunna do the blue lip, maybe paint a blue chevy bowtie on the center caps and blue calipers.
