$250-300 is pretty standard. The ABS are OK, but the WW lips will take much more of a beating

the ABS lips sit lower than the WW, but they are made of Fiberglass. WW are made of polyurethane. thats why they are more expensive.

For an 18 year old, that is astonishingly level headed thinking. You've been raised right.

And your car looks exactly how I'd like to do mine. Enough to look custom, but not riced out or over done. Very clean, very nice.

I love those rims as well, do you know what they are? I assume those aren't factory.

Why thank you..that really does mean a lot.

lol its funny because i can't stand my wheels right now! they're enkei's, but i never found out the specific model. i would be fine with them but they have ridiculous amounts of curb rash on each wheel and like +1 million offset making my wheels look sunk into my fenders lol.

thanks so much for the good words

Plasti-dip them for now to eliminate the curb rash or at least minimalize it. That's what I did. Black matte with gold metalizer over it. It's lasted about 3 months now!

The problem with adapters is that if they aren't torqued enough it puts your safety in danger. I had friends that had adapters break on them before, lucky only the car was damaged. I think blackack has adapters for sale but I think they are 5x 114.3

Hey, nice ride. Just bought my 99 a couple of weeks ago. I need a steering wheel cover bad. It's hard to tell, but if that is a cover in your pics I would love to have one like that. Can you share anything on it!

i bought it from autozone..TWICE! i loved the look of it because it went well with the rest of the dash, but the vinyl along the edges of the front and back peel like crazy. i wouldn't recommend it. im driving without one right now and hinting to my gf that i want a woodgrain nrg wheel with a quick release for my birthday

Please don't say tints

It's probably just leftover glue/adhesive. Try some goo gone and then windex

So i've ordered some xxr 962's four times. YES four times! Each time theyve had to refund me my money. and i've ordered the 526's twice with the same deal. i tried ordering them one more time, but when i called this wheel shop in oakland they told me that somethings up with xxr's factory and they haven't shipped anything in months. Sucks for me..

So back to the drawing board..
