Depending on shipping, I would think that's not rape at all. You got a good amount for them.

its probably gonna cost you at least 4 bills to fix, i had a friend who had a wheel not that bad but they charged close to 3 bills to fix. and they take like a little over a month to do it...

total would probably be around there. not worth it my friend. keep looking and take your time when it comes to wheels.. Remember, they make/break the car.

yea Im not getting them..

175 for the wheels
Gas=120
wheels fix=450
then still need tires and the 4th doesnt even have a center cap...

ehh I rather save all that money and buy something better with a more aggressive offset

any of you guys notice the new LED roadside lamps on the san mateo bridge? pretty cool looking. only one section has them as of now because i assume they're still in the process of switching them. they're on the eastbound side just after the hill.

It really sux for the ppl that won BOS during the year and were preparing for the end of the year BOS awards (1st - $15K cash + $10K product + $2.5K belt, 2nd - $7.5K, 3rd - $2.5K) & team award ($5K cash). However, it looks like the old HIN staff formed their own management & trying to start something up next year.

FYI, DDM Tuning is having a significant sale on their DDM HIDs in case anyone's looking to pickup a set.

http://www.ddmtuning.com/catalog/HID_Kits-85-1.html

just stay away from the raptor/apexcone brand.
