Got my rims!

I was going to save money for some shocks n struts, but my friend made me an offer I couldn’t resist. So I ended up buying his racing hart evo's c2's 18". To make a long story short I was swapping the rims when I was on the last two rims and the key broke, luckily my cousin owns an import shop so I go there I get another key n on the same lug it snaps again, that’s key number two then I get another one form him (its his last key) and that one snaps too. So im rolling on 18"s in the front and stocks on the back ( looks real ghetto ) im going to go get everything done tomorrow at this rim shop because my cousin doesn’t have the equipment for it, so hopefully I can post some pix up tomorrow!! p.s. damn racing hart and there CHEAP KEYS!

were you stepping on the lugnut wrench to torque the wheels?? those keys aren't THAT easy to break.. if you were steppin on it, juss remember your lugs shouldn't be torqued any more than 80lbs. if you were usin an impact gun, then they really do make some shietty keys.. good luck with the next one =) post some pics when you finish, c2's look hot on cl's

do you have a torque wrench to make sure you're not overtorquing them?

Looks good so far. Get some tire dressing and a drop.
