Back from my vacation in snowy NY

Too bad it was in the low 40s most of the week and just over 4 inches of snow the first day I was there. Yup, you heard right I don't mind the cold and snow as long as I don't live up there anymore haha

Tyler your move go ok? If it's the country your living in now, I know the feeling lol there is only 1 McDonalds within a 25 mile radius hahahahha

53 weeks sounds about right Jason.

Alex, yeah the move went well. You don't realize how much shit you have until you have to move it

I think the nearest McDonalds is 12 miles away. There's a Zaxby's about 7 miles away though

Dope.

Front needs to be lower or the rear needs to be higher though. Reverse rake is weird looking.

Need to get my fenders rolled before this so I can go lower. Eric needs to get his fenders rolled too so he can rock my extra set of spacers.

Yeah, you're the second person to mention that to me. The 2g's front wheel well is cut a lot higher than the rear is so it looks raked backwards even though its lower in the front. I'm sure someone will convince me to do it sooner or later... I had 4 shops try to align my car today and fail. Tire Kingdom worked out well though. It only took an hour of driving and everyone saying they could do it and being incorrect.
They told me I needed a camber kit because I'm 2 degrees in the front and 3 in the rear....I thought that was pretty funny.

I can't decide if it looks as good since seeing it in regular photos compared to that really photoshopped pic.

The front lip is hot but I don't like the sides.

Headlights are hot.

While I like the 20's better, those 19's still look good...they don't detract at all. This kit flows the best of the three from front to side to rear, and it doesn't have any extra crap climbing up the rear bumper...definitely the way to go.

Actually Tyler those are COR Precision wheels. They are on the same level as ADV.1 wheels though. They run between 6-8k a set depending on the options you chose.

State your price range and I can probably give you 5-10 brands off hand I can think of you can look at.

Been looking at the usual wheel websites. Considering some kind of Mesh, BBS, Vossen, Works, HRE. Checking out the AVD1 site now pretty cool site.

Any other sites you guys may suggest? Was just gonna get some lm reps and call it a day, but was worried about crap quality. Price range is 3K and under but maybe i can do more if needed.

For $3k you should be able to get a really nice set of authentic LMs and have money left over for tires

I know right, the choices mmm. And then there's big debate about euro wheels/BBS on Acuras and shit. Who cares cry me a river lol.

Soon guys, just thankful enough to have money to get some new wheels.
