Rims i am saving for to go on my FB

hey guys i went to the les schwabs and i saw these rims chillin on a rack


i gawked and awed.. then i got a price on them with high performance tires...(toyo proxie ts1's in a 205/45ZR-16)

it came to....$1143 for rims tires, valve stems, mounting of tires, balancing of tires, and installation on my car

not a bad price if you ask me.. im going to save 500 down on them then do payments on the rest...


btw they will be in 16 inch..

i chose white rims because i think RED fbs with WHITE rims looks really nice.... anyway just wanted to share that with you guys....

Yeah, on Halloween!

What are the Black wheels? They look almost identical to the white Motegi MR7s I am gonna get on my car after the SE hubs swap.

They are giving you the shaft..

About $187. to mount 4 tires?lol

If you like them rims,then the price is good,but the tires are over rated POS..
