cool see you there...

 

very nice

are you running 285/35/19 in the rear?

 

Thanks, I believe I'm actually running 275/35/19, I'll double check when I go to lunch today.

 

did you get the wheel/tire package?

if not, just out of curiosity....how much did you pay for just the wheels? were you charged extra for the color?

thanks. want to buy a set of these in gunmetal...just want to know how much brand new (at status).

 

I purchased the wheel and tire package as well as a set of Tanabe springs for the drop....


Not trying to be a tool or anything, but contact Rick directly and he'll give you a great price hands down.

 

The color is very nice, same style as gold, but not as flashy. I didn't see this color on the Volks' catalog, maybe I missed it. I still would like to see a "noble gold" color that they showed on the catalog on a PPW.

 

That is HAWT! Congrats on your setup. I've got to go see Rick. But, just as soon as the Z is paid off (give it a year - I can't wait)! BTW - did they just mount the stock TPMS in the rims without 'banding'. Does your TPMS work? Let me know.

 

^^ Thanks again, guys....

Yes I prefer this color over gold any day... it's taking some getting use to, but from all the looks I'm getting I must have done something right.

Rick and I decided to leave the TPS' off all together; being that it's an 04, he figured it to be unnecessary to go through all the hassle of adding them. Any problems and I'll be back... the whole shop was full of cool laid back guys...

Not to mention the view of the "house-wive's" jogging up and down PCH helped my 4 hour stay seem to just fly by...

I love sunny so cal....

 

looking good! nice wheels!

 

no worries, yea...i think i'll contact him.

did you roll your fenders?

 

Thanks for being understanding, he didn't post his prices for a reason and I'd hate to blow up his spot.

All in all, the fenders did not need rolling and I haven't had any rubbing issues. Before I left the shop, the guys had me sit in the car (6'5" 265 lbs) while they mimicked bumps in the road by jumping up and down on the back

In fact I took a freeway on-ramp rather aggressively and it felt smooth as can be... the tires are nice and quiet too... Toyo 255/35/19's

Overall, quite happy with the setup... Kinda matches my orange/ peanut butter seats too.
