www.onlinetires.com/But call them to place your order, they don't always have things in stock that the website says they do. Also, most of those 24 hour used tire places with do a mounting for $10 per tire.

Ok everyone, i did a little more digging and found out how to order a set of these wheels. There is a company called Wolfrace in the UK that can order them. For this range of wheels from ATS (15-18") the prices start at 260.95lbs ($425) each. I can assume that the 17's are around 275lbs each or probubly close to about $500 each!!!! I guess that means I was rolling around on about $2500 worth of tires and wheels! check out the link. www.wolfrace.co.uk/atscomp_details.php?wheelID=271I can't believe I have to sell these just to put new tires on my stock steel wheels. If anyone could help get the word out about them and help me sell them that would be great. I have already listed them in a few places for $800 w/tires and lug/lock nuts. I'm hoping the right person will jump on them soon.  |

Yes I do, as much as I love them they just don't work for the high mileage driving I do. I will probably never come across another set of these wheels again. I would say it a combo of three things, 1) is the 7.5" wide wheel, 2) is the 40mm offset, 3) is the 235 tire. Now the last is just a change of tires away from not being a prob. In the end it comes down to money, I don't have any. Selling my super expensive wheels will allow me to get a completely different setup better suited for DD duty.

No love for the chrome wheels, it seams like every one is going with a black or dark look. I was thinking a little bit o bling might look good.

Time for yet another build update! I have pulled out the HID's and gone back to a stock style H13 bulb, but I upgraded it to a high watt 3000K JDM yellow color bulb! its hard to see in the day time but it make a big difference at night. I went this route to have a better contrast on the road at night and to be seen in the day time. For some reason I cant see squat at night in this town because of the crap markings on the street, this should help by giving more contrast at night. I will also be upgrading the wiring harness with a new relay harness to draw power directly from the battery and not fry the stock stuff.  and my wheels are back on for those of you that didnt know already.  |

Well while at work today I discovered an amazingly cheap way to lower my car even more........ got your interest? you all have no doubt herd of air bags but that's just too expensive and complex, so I came up with a new low cost solution!!! ready its called the rock-bags!!!!! Step 1, empty you trunk. Step 2, load that muther up with rock-bags. Step 3, enjoy your new slammed look!    Hay look no more rubbing!  Now there are some downsides to going this route. #1, added weight will cost some acceleration! #2, added weight will require longer stopping distance! #3, if people find out about your cheap ways you will be ridiculed! Thanks and have a great day. ;D PS: I miss my truck sometimes! |
