Say What! Those wheels look tight on that car! Good job!

sickpuppy1 - Thanks for the comments. I talked her into getting a sound system installed. So that is the next project, but as far as lowering it.......That might take some work. :-)

By the way, Loujeezy, if ya see someone in a black 3-door waving at ya, that most likely will be me! I also drive a Jeep and a couple of motorcycles, so I'm used to waving and have been trying to get Yaris hatchback owners to do the same here in SA (yeah, I'm a hatch snob; but considering that it and the sedan are two different cars everywhere else in the word, I believe the discrimination is warranted!).
I am up in the NW side of town, not far from Helotes; whereabouts are you? We'll see about getting another SA meet soon, we're overdue. Cheers! M2

Those wheel looks killer on your car, some tint would make it look even more awesome.

I like the wheels as well. Tint it and slam it!

I like the stock wheels better. Not to mention the ride will be more soft and you will be less likely to damage the wheel in a pot hole. But in general, I am not a fan of a black car with tinted windows style. Gangster/bad boy wannabe? But of course, to each their own.

Nice looking ride, but try to convince her in getting that car lowered it would look even better, and welcome to YW

MadMax - I am out in the 1604 & Potranco area. Maybe I will see you around.
Thanks for all the comments on both the car and dog. I honestly didn't even think of tinting the windows but now it's on my mind. hmmmm.... |

Loujeezy
By this summer you'll be wishing you had. Also, get a good sunshade if you don't have one already. You'll need the longest one they make, I've got a good one if you need a recommendation. Also, I work on Lackland and commonly take 90 to 1604 on my way home, so there's a good chance we'll see each other one of these day! Be sure to wave! Cheers! M2
