Meh, all you need is a hair dryer and your fingers. Comes right off. Then use rubbing alcohol to remove the the outline and residue. Hit it with some wax and you're done. Took me 10min total to do.

Updates! Decided to sell my OEM Type-S wheels that I used for winter and get something a little different. NL Motoring was running a nice coupon code for all their XXR wheels, and since these would just be used for winter, I figured why not. Pulled the trigger on a set of XXR 530's, staggered, 18x8.75+20 (F), 18x9.75+20 (R).

Thanks guys. Haven't been on AZ that much lately...swamped at work. I'll try to get some high-res pics uploaded. I haven't been in touch with my photography side as much as I'd like, so I just ordered this....should make for some interesting photoshoots...

Nice lens, John. What are the specs?

Thanks, it's the Rokinon 85mm f/1.4. Image quality is supposed to be on par with the $1,500 Nikon 85mm f/1.4 for a fraction of the price. The Rokinon is a manual focus lens, so there's a steep learning curve if you're used to having the camera auto focus everything (like me). I just got it a couple hours ago and took some test shots. This thing is crazy to use at f/1.4 because the depth of field is so narrow, but when you get the shot you want, it's fantastic.
