Post PS'ed pic of my Alstatds :)



What do you think? Ya ya, I know, the cars in motion but the wheels aren't. Maybe Tanner can do a better job? I had a sh!tty pic to begin with, was silver but I did my best to make it look chrome.

Damn I can't wait for these bad boys! Gonna order a set of the BS5 super crystal lugs tomorrow.

BTW, got the Inspire wheel on yesterday!! It kicks ass! The dyed leather is a bit shiny... someone was saying to use saddle soap on it... wtf is saddle soap? I was thinking I might just armor all my airbag to the same shiny-ness. Anyway, I'd like to thank AC for going to all the trouble to get me the wheel (even if it was the wrong color lol ). Thanks AC!!

Springs go on Tuesday!

saddle soap is like a leather cleaner i used for my shoes. I'd just armor all the air bag for now, the dye might fade later on.

What kind of alstadts are those. They kind of look like those stock galant rims. Can you post a picture of the rims by themselves so I can get a better look at those?

They look nice, and they are 19s which is always good, but for real, they look like stock galant rims.

Man, i like the Alstadt II and III... anyone got pics of them? I saw them in a magazine... Are Alstadt wheels just as much as lowenharts? Or cheaper? How much are your 19s Nate?

Looks nice Nate

Matt, I think Alstadt are about the same price as Lowenharts i think.. a little cheaper then Lowenharts maybe.. it might depend on what rim too tho..

WOW!! 19" Galant chrome rims! Cool!

The TL is bigger than the Galant, and so are the rims. I think that your car might get mistaken for a large version of a Galant with those rims!

Thanks for the constructive criticism.

To those that even mentioned a Galant... die a slow painful death burning in hell.

Alstadts go for about $675 chromed, $325 shy of 19" BSDs, which were my first choice.

I've never seen Alstadt IIs I don't think. Alstadt IIIs:
