Bought my Rsr down springs. And threw them on immediately. It'll settle a little bit more, but for the next day or so it'll look like this






Tears look pretty good on my winter set haha. Can't wait for real wheels in a week!

Keep it up!

Quick question about your wheels. I bought a used set for winter use that look just like those but the in 17" and a different colour. Do you use the stock stud nuts or do have the rounded ones?

I use the stock lugs yes, they work fine.
Had to buy new ones for my 19" set though.

Thank you, I needed the rounded lug nuts as the stocks with the flat face wouldn't fit properly. It's a pain to have 2 sets and separate locks at wheel change time.

Luckily, I don't do it myself anymore, the tire guy charges me 20 bucks cash for the change over. Surprisingly, I also found out that he would store my spare set for 80 bucks all year, including 2 change overs. That's cheap.

I store my wheels at my shop.
I'm probably going to get my wheels put on this or next week at PremierTire..... whenever they receive my rear tires. They have my fronts in stock.
As for lugs I'll be doing gloss black Work lugs.

Default Wheels are on!

What a day!
Putting a fresh set of wheels felt the same as buying my car hahaha.
WOOH!

Just as I left the shop.





Not bad. Gonna coin op in a couple days after my calipers fully dry.





Rear concavity + fitment ... ugh so nice.





My fronts. Pretty flat... Because race car? Calipers looking fresh as well. Sticker will go on when everything is fully dry!

Nice I'm sure you couldn't wait any more to remove your winter set!! Are you planning on taking off the vinyl wrap?? Would love to see your car in its original color + the wheels!

Hahaha, probably not for a while.
I wrapped the car in October so I'm gonna ride it out until it's dragging on the highway.
