well, those actually look quite decent! and i'm really picky when it comes to wheels. those look really nice. you should get some more pix of your car with the new wheels. like go park somewhere for a photoshoot i guess you could call it.

Yah I know.......
My driveway really sucks to take pics in. I've got a couple places in mind to get some good pictures in. I'll let everyone know when I get really good pictures. :)

They new rims look good! I like your rally looking round lights also. I wanted to get some but I didn't think about it until after I installed my rectangular ones, oh well I'll just wait until one gets smashed. I also like the vent shade things, I just wish they were on my car instead, once I had a moonroof OEM one (which looks like what you have also), but my damn friend stepped on it.

3gn86lxi,
Man, you're moving along with your car. I like the rims. Do you have any problems with any rubbing on the tires being lowered 2.5" in the front? The wife's Astro Van is looking good too with the rims. You son's soapbox car is nice, them flames are kickin'. Nice paint job on it you done.

Yeah, that is a new pic. I need to take a better one. I put my bra on w/ out the head light pieces. I'm waiting on my trunk lid to get here from Pennsylvania. They supposed to shipped it off today. (11-16) After I get that in, I'm taking it to the body-shop to have them fix it to where I can paint it. I still have to get a center light which cost around $150 from the dealer. Everything is going slow with it, cause this local junk yard bullshitted around about getting a trunk for me.

I forgot to say, I took an offer from the insurance company. The local body shops estimate was little to high for the value of the car.(so they said) I got almost what I paid for it & got enough green to fix it & then some. The paint might have to wait till next year, I plan on shooting a better coat of clear on anyway.

Thanks alot guys..
ddude2uc.....Glad to hear you didn't get screwed by the insurance company. I have to deal with insurance alot at work, and trust me, they are not looking out for you!!! Only their bottom line. Which sucks for guys like you and me.
carfreak and busted....we should start the all blue sedan club!!! What do ya think??? :)

3gn86lxi ,
If you don't mine me asking, how much did you pay for a set rims (4)? I'm looking into getting some rims sometime next year. Also, that tread probably wasn't cheap either.

Not too bad huh?? *your quote*

No, that isn't bad for 17" rims a tires. Not bad at all. I need freinds like that. lol

lol, you got those from schwab's my friend. I like a good shopper. I used to have those on my accord (some of you remember my black lxi) I can even name exactly what they are...
17" (or 16") 4-100/4-4.5 amp one, wrapped in what looks like federal tires. Around $800 for the set. Good buy, not a bad wheel either.

There's my baby, I miss that car. I should have just fixed the quarter, and used it as my project car, even though it was totaled.

11-22-2004, 06:05 PM
shane......thats funny. You had em too. I only paid $625 though. The tires are Falcons. :alc:

Did you get htem used? That's a damn good price for wheels and ziex tires, good find. Even with my employee discount it was $800 for a 17" package with Federals (the cheepest tie we carry, lol) and I know you got them form Schwab's because they are a schwab's exclusive wheel (les schwab's designed the wheels, and partnered up with american racing/ro_ja to fabricate them in china, we had a huge meeting on marketing them a few months ago) great find. Not my style any more, but I think they'll look great with a big drop.

3gn86lxi
11-22-2004, 11:21 PM
No, they are band spankin new. My good buddy manages a Schwabs close to me. So I've always had the homie hookup, totally legit..... I got em at his cost. SSHHHH, you didn't hear that from me! :alc:
I wanted a different color, but these will work for now. I'll have em painted or powder coated after a while.

well if he is the manager, it's totally up to him how much he sells them for, it's his bonus he's wasting after all, lol. It takes a lot to become a manager of a schwab's store, it aint like being a manager of mcdonalds, you get a salary. I make more a month right now (and I'm still in school) than my parents make in two weeks (they make more then me per month, this is still an accomplishment though) schwab's is a great job. You should have your buddy give you a job.

11-24-2004, 07:21 PM
Yea Shane, It's kindof a long story bout him givin me such a good deal. If I told you.......you would know which store he was at. Anyway, he usually gives me the good deals, but not that good. Hell, my wifes wheels were $1700! And that was a pretty good deal.
Anyway....are you gonna make the meet in December?
:alc:And no thanks on the job, I'm doing very well where I am.

I am trying to get a meet going for early spring, but it looks like their is going to be a portland or vancouver meet in december. You should go. I don't have a 3g anymore, but I'll take my 240.
