I would feel like I ripped off that lady.

But, that's just me.

The rims look awesome!

Oh jeez, leave the poor kid alone. Yes it needs to be lowered BADLY, but i'm sure he'll get to that in good time. His new wheels are definitely an upgrade from his stock 15" steelies, and he got them for free basically......so respect that.

thats exactly what she wanted. she hated the ride she said she felt every bump. i did not rob her. i insisted in giving her some money but she said no. and like i said it doesnt sit that high. i will post more pics tomorrow to show. looks really good. and also Tenzo's are on the way. but all in all. i got a AMAZING deal.
