I like the triple timeline pic. I still remember it when it was white, that was the last time I saw it in person. Still haven't seen it with the grape paint yet, I gotta get out more.

retail for 18" VIP Modular VX series is 5900, VXS series is around 6300 give or take. But is completely custom, i don't recommend cheaping out on wheels. if your budget is 4k look into VIP or any other custom wheels. If anyone interested in VIP Modular wheels contact Yuya at VIP Modular and let them know Jay Purple TL sent you.

haha More camber = better handling LMAO on another note to what i said above, only way you'll have a vibrating steering wheel is your wheel balancing sucks, something wrong with your axles or other suspension parts, or if you have a full reverse lip, and water gets into your barrel and throws off the weight balance.

But yea i had to attend a family gathering with my GF, she only see's her family maybe once a year at the most (he live in Tennessee), since they were down in he area we went to meet up with them instead.

just save up a little more a little longer you will not regret it ever Trust!!! VIP Modular is legit, Custom everything, Center bore, backspacing, offset, Face color, barrel color, Rivets color (plus they have new VIP Modular crest stamped rivets). Plus it cant hurt to get a quote, what i gave you is retail pricing.
