Yay... new wheels

Wheels are Rota Subzeros 17" X 7.5" 45mm offset...about 16-17 lb per wheel. The quality on them aren't that great, but it's a good alternative for a cheap lightweight wheel. But the looks though, I like it a lot. It's more of a subtle look now compared to my old wheels, and I am beginning to like being less "eye-catching"

Corvette imatation rims? What'd you have before? Lexus IS300 rims? Isn't 7.5" a little wide?

Less eye-catching? Haha, you can put on steelies and it still wouldn't make your car less noticeable! Looks good though!

Where's my drag vid?

If that was your objective and the reason for your choice, then you've failed miserably my friend, because those rims still scream "look at me!"

I love the polished lip

Hey hey, I wasn't trying to "de-bling" my car here Compare to my old rims, these are definitely less "eye-catching"...

Whoever said that 7.5" rim is too wide must be Just joking... The best fitment for P205 tires is actually a 7.5" wide rim. Still, that doesn't mean I will be staying P205 in in the future

Anyway, no vids yet because I returned my Sonyl digital camcorder since I needed money for my emergency transmission fund. Looks like you guys have to wait until I get some extra cash for another Digital camcorder...
