Nice. Now it needs to be lowered.

 

look pretty nice...how much did u get them??..
needs to be lowered about an 1.in or 1.5..

 

They look really clean. I think that it is better than chrome. I have chrome, and it is a pain to take car of. How much did you pay?

chrome isn't difficult to take care of. and it looks awesome shining in the sun or night lights

 

Looks very nice, good work.

 

Thanks all. Paid $1100 for everything including an alignment, road hazard warranty, install, balance, etc. Since then I saw a package deal on the internet for $850 or so, but not including shipping, balance & alignment, and I got these put on the same day I bought them.

Definitely need to lower it now...that's next on the list, but probably not for a couple of months. I'm a little sketched about lowering it with the crappy roads all around my house, but it will probably be cool...will probably get the H&R 1.6" springs from reading about them on this forum...sounds like they have a little smoother ride than others.

After you get the chrome rims from the person who didn't take care of them at first it is hard.

Very nice. You made the right choice with 17's.

 

why not 18's??? I'm thinking of going with that

 

Why not 18's...well, first, more $$$ I didn't feel like I needed to spend since I like the look of the 17's.

Also, Denver roads are very bad because the weather changes so much...new potholes show up overnight on various streets betwen my home & work. I heard from more than one employee of more than one different tire company that almost every set of 18's they sell come back to replace a bent rim within about 6 months. I just can't afford that...I'm a little nervous with 40's on my 17's...if I could go back I'd probably go with 45's.

Hmm.. Looks pretty good..

 

Looks nice!

 

looks good. I know what you mean about those potholes I live in MD close to DC and Baltimore, horrible roads and traffic. Anyway now we're getting hail here. Damaging my car!!!!
