Seeing all these new wheels being posted finally did me in! Luckily I recently got a decent impairment check from my employer due to my back injury and surgery last year.

The wheels are Motegi DPK's 18x8 Hyper Black and the tires are the obligatory BFG G-Force KDW. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banana.gif[/img]

Thanks Joe! If I lower it, it will have to wait for a while. This is my only car and I'm not sure if I want to mess with it too much. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]

They are 255/45/18's and thanks everyone for the comments. I'm not much of a modder so there was much hand wringing and indecision but, I'm glad I finally did it. They look much better than I expected. They were discontinued while I was waiting for some money to come my way and I got the very last set Discount Tire had. They had to ship them from Phoenix. I wanna lower it some but, I'll have to talk myself into it someday. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]

Haha! I need to borrow some lights from work so I can really scare all the wonderful street racers who keep trying to race me. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrinjester.gif[/img]

Thanks John! How are you liking that K&N CAI? That's something I'm considering too since I would rather not have to re-tune it.
