Finally got some pics of the first 2 mounted up...long story but should have the other 2 mounted by middle of next week. Axis Gravity, 18x9", +40, Gunmetal and Falken ZE-912, 245/40-18 + Kics Project R40 lugs.

 

definately some nice wheels, they will look hot.

 

how much u got them 912's??

nice set of rims!!

 

nice rims bro...i jst bought a pair from stillhere153....i get everything mounted up tomorrow...im gonna lower my car alittle more prob 2 inchs in total maybe alittle more in the front...i also got falken 912's been hearing there a great tire....should have some pics up tomorrow if its nice out

 

Thanks man....went through hell to get them and they are no longer available so they'll be kind of a novelty

912's ran $445 from discount tire on eBay...great price I thought!

stillhere153 had a lot to do with me getting these wheels...I bought them from enigmaos but Al helped me out big-time. look forward to seeing your ride on the hyper-silver Grav's milk man...it's gonna look sexy!

 

While you guys wait for tires and mounting..........................

Enjoy these,

 

looking good! can't wait to see them mounted!

usps dropped the ball.

yeah, stillhere153 FTW lol

 

USPS FTL... is CORRECT... just in case anyone from the outside who may be reading, tom (enigmaos) and I shipped the wheels to the OP, and USPS pretty much did a 25% delivery... screwed up everything

GLAD YOU FINALLY GOT EM THO

you gonna need a drop

 

Well...50% actually...LOL. But everything seemed to have worked out alright...if the next set arrives intact and complete

 

has it been 21 days for the missing wheel? and what is usps gonna do give you cash? or replace (the impossible to replace) wheels?

 

Can't file a loss claim until the 17th....filing damage claim the same time. Not sure but I'm sure they'll drag their feet like any Federal Gov't entity is trained to do They gotta cash me out since they're irreplaceable!

 

that sucks that they lost the wheel, I Bought an amp from NJDevil a while back and it was damaged in transit by USPS. I returned it to him and he filed a claim. From what he told me they made good on it without too much hassle.

 

USPS is actuallly pretty good at filling a claims as long as you have all your paper work ready. Since the total loss is less that 1000 dollars you will be ok.

 

^^^ Good info to know...I'll just keep my fingers crossed and hope both claims go smooth. This has been a learning experience if nothing else.

 

well I am glad I overnighted you the slips and receipts...

now they have no way out but to pay up...

 

Yup...you have been a great help through all of this BS......Thanks again Al.

 

Just a few pic before I rack out...car gets a bath tomorrow!

 

damn, now I see why you were fighting to get these on, they look very good, especially with the black reflection on the polished lips...

ok ok seriously tho, get a drop, pm me if you need any advice

 

Yea, I know...now that I got 'em mounted up I'm thinking drop for sure. I gotta slow down on the mods for now though I'm kind of wishing I would've went with wider skins now...265/35-18's would've worked well I think.

 

update your signature for starters... and yea you need to spread the mods out, like I didnt put everything on my car in 1 day, it was a year long process

 

hey they look very good .... need that dropp...where you get the lug nuts from and how much?

 

Thanks milk man....got the lugs from this outfit http://www.optionimports.com/kiprr40lugnu.html ... pricey but I liked them so WTH? You only live once...

 

tons of places have em, mynismo is my store of choice, I might get the 4 project kic locks just for the hell of it lol

 

Dude

1. get some wheel locks before you get JACKED in the middle of the night.

and 2. Which cheapo shipped wheels through USPS???

 

... that'd be me, cheepo? not really it was $205 to ship em to the OP...

I had previously shipped 4 wheels and 4 tires without any problems

 

..... kinda unnecessary comment

 

looking good, Rob. More pics after wash.

 

I knew EVERYTHING when I was 17 too ... but that was a long time ago

 

Here ya go Tom...2 are yours and 2 are from the West Coast...LOL

It might look like a 4x4 without a drop but in the grand scheme...not really

 

Oh yah, It really needs a drop. I actually think the (A) center cap looks alot more clean IMHO.

 

Love those wheels , too bad they're discontinued . I would like to have a set for my ride .

 

(A) center caps from a tl-s gunmetal wheels would definitely set it off nicely

 

my mouth jst dropped to the floor those rims are hot on your car even with out the drop.... but you still need the drop your car looks so fresh and so clean

 

Nice wheels... don't look like 18s though

 

Agreed...drop is inevitable now

I am looking for those...my thoughts exactly.

Thanks for the props milk man...I try very hard to keep her immaculate at all times.

I think too much tire sidewall makes them look smaller than 18's...next set of tires will be 255 or 265/35-18's...after the drop of course.

 

oh so now you want the mean performance look... 265/35-18 imo would look HOT AS FUCK

245/40-18 looks pretty damn good tho

 

Man I should of bought these.. But for some reason next to my ride.. they dint look good. Oh well Hyper Silver it is

 

The Hyper-Silvers match your car awesome man...and look soooo much better with your drop. I'm not sure the Gunmetals would look right with anything but NBP or maybe WDP

 

I can't get enough of the pics. The car looks much more aggressive now! nice touch on the CF cls lip and nice color scheme.

wanna wash my car?

245/40/18 is fine after drop. Give it a try first. 1.5"-1.75".

 

Definitely a huge improvement huh? It'll be better when I recoup $600 from USPS for their screw up I really like the CSL spoiler...kind of unique and noone else is rockin' it around here; it really sets off the rear of the car combined with the TL-S tails. I'm going to roll the 245's until they're done and then rethink my tire choice...car will be dropped by then for sure

Lots of claying and polishing to get her to shine like that...wash/wax is a waste without prepping the paint proper; but what a huge PITA to prep! Black is PAIN...LOL.
