looks good + good price = GJDM

I've got the same wheels, they look great. Why wait till spring to install? Just put them on during a warm day and head in for an allignment.

Did they come with the tires already on there? Or did you take them in already to have the tires put on

This is such a good thread. They look good on your couch man. Looks like it's sitting pretty flush, but you have some serious toe and negative camber issues.

I ordered them with tires mounted and balanced. I'm in Alberta Canada so end of March is the earliest I would take it out.

The wheels are ok but I think the couch is out quite a bit. Too nice to put in the garage

what about the TPMS?

Its going to be a very annoying ride with the low tire pressure signal beeping at you

I don't believe the 2004ZR Touring AT with 17 wheels came with TPMS. I have driven with the tires below 20 psi with no alarming.
I cannot find it on the trip computer when toggling thru it.

Looks great!

I know I would have just bought something else if I waited the three months, maybe that's why he bought them early!

When I bought them CDN$ was close to par with US$ at $0.97 so it was a good time to buy. I may be adding suspension drop and other items on the car during the winter, I just won't be driving it until spring.
