My computer is not made for gaming but you know Blizzard will make sure that just about everyone can play their games I'll probably get Starcraft 2 but for sure diablo 3. The last game I played on pc was call of duty 4 and it ran ok not as good as ps3 or xbox 360 but still playable so that should be good enough.

Major props to Jake for the brake and rotor installs today. Great to meet someone who knows his stuff and is a nice guy to boot. Will definitely make it out to an autocross/drift event in the near future. Thanks again Jake!

well...my wheels sold on the fly - Im REALLY going to miss them.. BUT on a side note - Im ordering MB Battles 18x9.5 all around (+15) and plan on getting same setup on tires - 245/40 fronts and 275/40 rears.

Then I may be ordering another set of MB weapons - 17x9

So I should be 3 sets deep in MB LOVE..
2 new sets of rims for the price of one - gotta love that..


Then do a few more jobs and get another set to make a total of 12 wheels...One set for DD, One for Auto-x, and 2 sets for drifting....

I biased Chris - cheap wheels and strong as well.

These are MB Battles and Im running MB weapons for AUTO-X


Weapons


Weapons are 600 bucks or less for the whole set.. and battles are going to be a lil over 700 for the set..

Those are actually decent Japanese wheels - i'm not sure why they are dirt cheap over here but I've ran them and driven on them pretty hard with no issues at all. Great wheel for the $$ esp is you are tearing em up on the track. If only the offset selection were better.
