New Rims Finally

Hey finally have the new rims (thanks to Tamago), they are the Konig 15" White Rims he was selling. Here are some pictures (bad quality sorry):

I know I need to lower my car...

Nice.
Is the tpms light on now?
I never went for rims because I thought that light would drive me nuts.....
I like the exhaust too.

No the TPMS didn't go on. They put the sensors back in the wheels too and its no problem at all. I just transfered the tires I had on my alloy wheels onto the white rims.

I believe there is a DIY posted on how to disable the TPMS that I seen the other day.

That exhaust is from Garm, Micro Image, the nitto exhaust

To just swap them, balance them, the whole process and put new balancing weights on the rims on the inside it costs a total of $90 flat. I bought the lug and lock kit myself from Auto Zone, which was about $30.


I shopped around for prices. Some places charged ridiculous prices. Like firestone wanted to charge me a grand total of $150. STS was going to charge $25-$50 PER WHEEL. Goodyear was going to charge $100.

The place I went to was a small business, called AAAA Tires. Great service!

If you want, Walmart only charges $45 but I can't trust them haha rather go to a real shop.

I like the no center caps look.
Besides, on LI people steal those things! Sometimes one, sometimes ALL!

Yea well the shop that was ordering the lug kit for me was playing BS with me saying oh they are coming in the next morning we will do it tomorrow and kept saying it so I just went out and just bought some regular ones from Auto Zone I couldn't wait anymore.

And yea some center caps would be nice but like Auxmike said we have some asses out on LI that just steal them. But yes deffinatly need them though cause it looks kind of rusty.

Lowering it I'm going to do this month when I have the money for them. I just wanted to get the rims for my car out of the way instead of waiting riding around with painted hubcaps lol.

And thanks Tamago and A-tron

I really like that look! Centercaps aren't needed, looks better without them.
