canderton01's (mild)update thread

[canderton01]

So I'm not exactly the most active member here, but I thought I might throw this up. I've got an '02 XLE with 78xxx miles and as you can see, she's not exactly in the best of shape. The front wheel cover popped off last year after hitting a massive pothole.

Anyways here is the car:




I just ordered a set of 17'' Enkei FD-05 rims and I'm getting new tires as well(Riken Raptors) today... hopefully to be installed by the end of the week at the latest.

Here are the rims:

I'll also be getting 35% tint(legal limit) all around tomorrow.

I will continue to post pics as she progresses. Let me know what you guys think.

I ordered the rims from Discount Tire. I think they are the exclusive dealer of these rims.. at least where I live. And I'll be sure to post pics as soon as I get them on

Nice rims, 17" will look a bit small, I would go 18" though.

Talk about lowering springs.. Took me almost 2 years!!
