Ordered new rim....
I ordered my new rim. You guys remember I curbed my back one really bad a while back. Well I finally ordered a new one. Should be here in a week. Then my car will be back to normal....

I paid $370 + tax and shipping. Which came to $420. Before my rims were $420 alone each. So I saved a little this time....

Most wheel shops will include mount, balance, lug nuts, and shipping all in the price.

yeah.. i just plan on getting just the wheels, no tires so no need for the extra charge for mounting and balance.

daniel, did you ever have to get centering hub rings? oh yeah, you going to enter your car in the IE on sept 27th??

No I did not get the centering hub rings- they did not tell me about them when I bought my wheels over 2 years ago. My friend had a set and I always wandered if it would really make a difference.
I will probably enter IE as long as Im not going out of town that weekend.
