Default Got some temporary wheels for a couple weeks

So what do you think? The rear is hella flush! I apologize for my car's dirtyness...it's been over a week since I washed her.





















Special thanks to SR Auto Group for lending me this set of wheels while mine are off to the shop.

hit a pothole a few weeks back, small dent in the left front wheel. no tire pressure loss, so i wasn't in a huge rush to get it fixed. right rear wheel had a tiny scratch from a rock chip on the inner lip. so my wheels are off to a wheel shop for some repairs.

i might be doing some custom work to my work wheels, i'll have to see...

it's either a 18" or 19" wheel. i have a prussian blue lip kit on.
