    New Rims!! (woohoo for me!)

    Here are the rims I just got...i don't have the center caps on because a)the guy forgot to give me the right tool and b) I missing one of the caps (prob. lost in my car somewhere).


    Rims ar 16x7.5 TSW Imola, there are 5 in the set i bought (one imbalanced spare)...they only have one curb and a couple of super small scratches, so basically excellent condition, and tires are 205/40-16 Toyo Proxies FZ4 and the seller through in an extra tire as well...so that's 5 wheels, 6 tires all for.......$325. WHAT A DEAL!!! So I'm super-stoked on the new addition to my car!

    Edit: I'm not exactly sure what the offset is on these wheels, but with just me in the car, it doesn't rub at all. however, on returning home today, with gf and friend in the car, plus a trunkload of stuff, the tire started rubbing so I rolled the lips on both rear wheel wells. Problem solved!

    Edit 2: Had to drive to Everett, WA from Eugene OR (>5 hours) to pick them up. Well worth it!

    You can get them in Portland at Plus One Motorsports, assuming they have them in stock, if not they can order them. The cap is probably like $15 to $20 for the one. On my caps I have pins that slid throught and all four pins cost $20. Add on's arn't cheap.
