UPS arrived at 2:00pm.. with my limited tools in the garage (was using the shitty spare tire jack and hand wrench and sockets) I finished mounting them at 3:30.. took some pictures.. still need an alignment =)

the 5zigens + falken's ze512 are about 8 lbs lighter than the stock rims and tires at each corner

tein basics.. im thinking of dropping it a lil more when i go get my alignment tomorrow.. the car seems to be a lil higher with these wheels compared to the stock ones

jdm euro r kit, hood trim, grill, and fogs ordered yesterday.. hopefully that will finish stage 2 of my mods (exterior) so that I could move onto stage 3 (header, intake, RT cat, exhaust, and supercharger)

stage 4 would be I.C.E. ... stay tuned =)

Looks like you are going to have some fun. How long they told you when your Euro R lip coming in?

the tein basic rides surprisingly comfortable; there are increased road feedbacks, but that is actually a positive thing to me. the ride is not harsh, yet it is responsive

okay, car is at the shop right now getting an alignment.. $59.99 not a bad deal... too bad its gonna take 3 hrs (they have other cars @ the shop) so I came home first.. hopefully they wont scratch up my new rims =)

I asked them to set the toe to 0.0... lets see how close they can get =)

oh I havent gotten an alignment since i installed my tein's last week.. was waiting til I slap my wheels and tires on so I can maximize the life on these new tires... the shop that installed my camber kit simply adjusted the rods to the stock length so I guess its time for one =)
