Slap a few antennas on the trunk and you got an un-marked police cruiser.

Few hundred? Cheapest 16" alloys I saw were ~$100 a piece. x4 that makes $400. Add tax and shipping and your over $500. Yeah I'm cheap.

Anyway I find steel rims better in the winter. Ice and snow doesn't build up as badly as it does with alloys.

Thanks for all the posts. I'm glad people are getting a kick out of this . She used to be called 'Lexy Blew' but now she's affectionately known as 'Da Tank'.

So what happens with the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System)?

You get the orange warning light then?

The light finally came on a couple of weeks ago. No TPMS on these babies.
