Default EVO and 350Z (my daily and my garage queen)

Bored and took some pics of a few things I work hard for at home.










Glad to have a supporting wife who sponsored me for most of my goodies

oh man don't get me started on these wheels.. they are RPM 505 .. they are the biggest POS i have ever purchased as far as wheels go.. decided to cheap out and now paying the price..

2 months after getting the rims.. i slightly hit a curb because some biker came up on my side getting off I-87 to GWB in NYC.. that dented the rim.. not dented where you could see it or the lip scratched.. but dented that ever since then.. ever 2 days i loose 10 PSI of Air in my tire.. at first i thought it was my tire.. Potenza SO-3's .. yeah we know how expensive those are.. so i replaced the tire.. left the shop happy with confidence.. only to find out it was still doing it.. yeah its the sh!tty *** RIM.. wasted my money on tires..

so fast forward 8 months.. the eff'n black paint on the rim is starting to peel.. and its not just 1 rim.. its all eff'n 4 rims.. what a CHEAP POS.. chip chip.. peel peel.. i am so eff'n FED UP.. even the Chrome is peeling.. WTF.. CHROME DOESN'T PEEL

i decided to go with Work VS-XX .. they look exactly the same.. but this time i am getting a good quality RIM..

Both very clean! Only thing I would have done while shaving the badges on the Z would have been to shave the rear wiper too.

lol, I was about to ask if your wheels are Work VS-XX but wasn't too sure your wheels on your avatar looks clean on a SB Z. I do need to change my POS wheels too but I love the way it looks and haven't had any problem with it after 15000 miles.

Two very sexy rides! It's a win/ win when trying to decide what to take out for the day.
