wow! Very nice, your car looks lowered, is it? These dark-colored cars don't show much of a fender-wheel gap.

how is the sunroof wind-deflector working out for you? does it cut-out windnoise? looks sleek IMO

i can't believe your car has 180k! looks so clean!

No my car is not lowered. I think it just looks that way with the shadows, etc. I just got these rims and I love the way they look. The sunroof deflector works excellent. I hated all that wind noise when I had the sunroof open at high speeds. The deflector makes it relatively noise free. It also looks cool and is pretty cheap. Yes, my car has 180K miles. Crazy huh? The car is very clean and in great shape, exterior and interior. Its a great car, I hope I have it for another 100K miles.

Thumbs up

totally awesome.
How much did they set you back and where did you get them? I'm thinking of getting a set of sweet chrome rims for spring/summer. I'll save the stock alloys and tread for NE winters.

Thanx.

They're not stickers, they are vinyl decals. Big difference, lol! Come on, I like the way they look. But if you dont...thats ok! Besides, I think my name is on the title...I think! LOL!

Im glad you guys like em. I got them at a rim shop down the street. They arent Volks, they are some knockoffs I guess. Ah, who cares.

Oh, oh....

Looks good, though they are knock-offs. Those Volks in 18s are like $2000-2500.
