Default Got my rims.

Well got my 19" HP rims yesterday (8.5 in the front and 9.5 at the rear), decided to take pictures before I have to garage the car cause of hurricane Wilma. This is the first of many things I have planned for my car. Immediate plans would be lowering the car next week and the following week install the Nismo front lip and order the Vertex sides and bumper. Enjoy.

Ed.

My eyes must be crooked too because I like those angled shots.

Nice wheels...

Good luck on surviving Wilma!

Did you notice a difference in acceleration with these new wheels? I looked up the specs and they are 32lbs for 8.5 and 35lbs for the 9.5s, which is more than 10lbs over stock rim weight each...which is at least 40lbs or better. Of course if you get a lighter tire than stock (which stocks are heavy, not sure what they are) then you might be adding 30-35lbs instead of 40+ which is better. Anyways, I'm not one to talk though..I have a massive stereo that probably added 100lbs to the car easy. Time to turbocharge!
