Nice. Either you bought it used (most likely based on price) or you stink at parking cuz you got curb rashes. HAHA

The color feels out of place. I'll give you my stock for those. LOL

I am wondering how good those tires are going to be in snowy/winter conditions.. they look more like a summer performance tire. Although I don't know how much snow and Ice you guys get down in Newport News, Va. Otherwise for a winter beater set of wheels they don't look bad at all. Just MHO.

Yeah bought em used, didn't feel like shelling out that much for some rims I can beat up. I was kind of worried about the colors at first but I like it now.

Frankly, all newport news/virginia beach roads are bad (warwick blvd being the worst). I'm surprised I haven't bent a rim yet honestly
