Got something today

So after a long time of saving, then waiting, I finally got my wheels. They are the c5 replicas 17x8.5 up front, and 18x9.5 in the back... Can't wait to get them on!

Got them on today, wrapped in the cheapest decent tire I could find, Falken FK 452s. I am very happy with how everything looks! The tire tread looks mean, and the wheels look good too. I'll try to get some good pictures up by the weekend, after I clean it up real good.

I have the same tires and I love them. Tread does look pretty sick. Ive had them for a year and a half and the tread is still good, so they dont burn down much which is nice.. Ive done quite a bit of driving on them too.

Thanks Paar, I'm glad they're good tires!

The balancing went well. It ended up being 65$ mounted and balanced. The weights are on the inside so it looks nice. No shaking out of the normal that I have noticed, so I think everything went very well!

Pics were postoned because of rain... Sorry, hopefully tomorrow!

Sorry about the wait, these are cell phone pictures so they're not the greatest. I don't know when I'll be able to get some real pics up, but these will have to do I guess. The parking pad was just built by us which is why there is all the dirt and everything on the driveway. Enjoy...
