| Posted: 8/26/08 7:58PM Post subject: Some Nice Cheap Rims To Hold Me Over. PICS |
|
|
I ordered my rims Sunday Tork Imagine 18x8 front and 18x9 back. I didn't hear from them till today and they didn't have the fronts in so I got some R1 Racing Hype 18x8 front and 18x8 mass lip back. I only got them cuz they said racing. :silly:
Anyway they should be here by friday. I needed rims and with all the stuff I've got on order or will be getting done I just couldn't get anything better. This should hold me over till spring when I do the upgrade.
I got them for $1531.00 including... nitrogen fill, wheel locks, 2year road hazard, and $25 gas card every month up to $500 (that's $25 for the next 20 months for the slow). Oh and this is with tires and shipping.:) Not bad and better then stock.

Tork Imagines are ALWAYS a pain to get a hold of for some reason (my girl wanted some 7 months or so ago...still waiting).
NICE DEAL THOUGH...They gave you everything except the kitchen sink! |

| i think nitrogen holds better in the tire for longer periods at a time |

Not sure how good of a deal that is without knowing what tires were included, but they do look nice. |

So we drove over to autozone to get some wheel cleaner. There was three of us and I was rubbing on the back passenger. Turns out there's some plastic that's on the passenger side that's not on the driver. I"m gonna cut that off and I should be good. I should be good without cutting it but just in case I someone ride back there again.
Over all I'm happy with them, for the price and being the first aftermarket rims I've had.
I'm on s-techs if anyone was wondering. I'm glad I didn't get 19's or wider in these.lol |

I think that 6th one is pretty good.
Call your boy to come take pics of my car and I'll add his name to the bottom of each one if he can't do it. In fact just wait to the rest is done and then call him. :P |
