Finally got some new Rims and Tires.

Well after about 8 months of looking for new wheels I finally found a wheel/tire combo that I actually liked so much it made me want to replace my factory rims. UPS finally dropped them off yesterday afternoon so I put them on today. I finally ended up with a set of MB Old School 18x9's with 255/45 Eagle F1 Supercar tires. With the $100 black friday discount and the Goodyear $80 rebate I knew now was the time to get them. Though my wife says they look exactly like the stock wheels, I dont agree. To me these look more like the wheels from the movie car because of the center cap then our stock ones do. I am very happy I bought these and love the deep dish look. The only bad side is the spacing between the wheel and caliper is the same as stock so I cant add bigger brakes. Also got them with the stem style TPMS sensors and they work perfect. No warning light came on and they were already programmed form Discount Tires Direct so I didnt need a programmer tool.





Here is a pic of the new rims on the front without the center cap on. They do almost look exactly the same.

I like the stock wheels on those cars but those aftermarket ones look great to
