tell me about it, when i saw that UPS truck pull up the street that day I was standing at the curb waiting for him, he musta thought I was a psychopath.And yeah I bugged Will alot too with PM's but he always promptly responded to them( thanks again Will ). I will bust out with some new pics here shortly I am waiting for my car to go in the paint shop and get my sides and rear kit put on.Then its pic time.One word of advice on cleaning them though.USE A LEAF BLOWER!!! They hold a puddle of water at the bottom of the wheel right behind the spokes( right behind where the spokes meet the dish ) I put an old rag back there to absorb the water when I am cleaning mine.Plus the little holes around the center cap ALWAYS have water in them too.Thats where the blower comes in handy.The frist two times I cleaned mine I had to redo the job because of all the water that was in those holes came fying out when I started to drive off.I imagine your will be a bit easier to clean though since they are chrome you can probably just spray on a mild wheel cleaner and wipe them down.Polsih though you cant wipe, you have to blot them dry.Its worth it though when you are done and those lips are gleaming and you see jaws drop when you drive by!!

GST...no problem, just glad you guys received the stuuf and like them

B..GST made a GOOD suggestion on the cleaning part by using a leaf blower..

remember, NO wheel cleaner, just use mild soap and water....blot/soak/blow dry the wheels.., esp on the lips

Blulex,

I hate you guys.

I try my best to forget about wheels and then you show me these awesome wheels and I get all misty eyed and confused................

Awesome looking wheels bro. Can't wait to see them on your car. Have you already installed the coilovers you said you ordered? Now nobody can touch your Lex.

BLING BLING! every time I come around your city BLING BLING Zauber Gettins worth about 50 BLING BLING every time I get a new ride BLING BLING them Zaubers on yokohama tires <sing like the Cash Money Millionaires>

I wish I never found this site!!!!! I took my ghetto 20s off and I actually dont mind the way my car looks clean, lowered, with the HIDs and screens glaring!! Thats because of THIS FORUM. Makes you appreciate a cleaner, more classy look!!

I say all of this because I know bluelex had some dubs before, but took them off and rode around for months on stocks, just to get the right thing!! We all need to get lives, because we are congratualating this guy like his doctor delivered 4 babies to him and his wife

We are also sick because we have ALL waited for the UPS man. I have you all beat though. Once I waited for 2 days and could not take it any more, on the third day, I DROVE AROUND MY NEIGHBORHOOD LOOKING FOR THE UPS TRUCK. gues what?? I FOUND IT, AND THE GUY HAD MY RIMS (17x7.5 Konig Cobra with 215/40-17 P7000SS, june 1998)

I DONT THINK ANY OF YOU CAN TOUCH ME WHEN IT COMES TO THE SICKNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S much congrats on the wheels , I wont even ask how much you paid

Went like this: Hey do you have 4 big boxes for such and such address? Well good, because I live there and those are for me, here is license as proof, and here is the money for the C.O.D now please follow me to my house!! The rest as they say was HISTORY

I could not agree with you more, well said!

Nice wheels bluelex, looks like tomorrow is my turn to wait for the UPS man.. I just moved to texas and was told the guy in this neighborhood(staying at a friends until I find a place) leaves the note saying sorry we missed you all the time without actually knocking on the door.. so I am really going to be watching out... I am glad you had such great luck with GS4Will, he has helped me a ton with questions and what not.. im sure I will be appreaciating him even more tomorrow when I get my wheels
