I'm getting really irritated with it. It's either raining or freezing!

Tomorrow, they go back on the car. It's already well into April... about freaking time.
Yeah. Not sure what the issue is. This morning it snowed. Not much and it melted in an hour or so, but still WTF?

Yeah man it sucks so bad I still haven't gotten over that day lol I'm just hoping if everything goes as planned it'll be done and ready by Wednesday/Thursday!

Those gorgeous wheels didn't come with any center caps for them?

I was NEVER planning on even dropping my car until I bought my 20s and the cars gap between the tires and fender made it look like a monster truck lol I ordered my Eibach Pro Kit that same day and installed them 4 days later once I got them

These pictures are from 2 years ago...

If I can find a shop that will sell me 4 tires and install them on my previously bought elsewhere wheels... well, that's what I'll be doing.

The shops should be lining up to help you. People have new tires mounted on previously bought wheels all the time.

Go online to Costco, print off the the price of the tires you want and get a place to price-match. Mr. Tire if you have those, maybe Pep Boys.

Love that new setup, glad you ended up getting what you truly wanted, told you it would work BTW, what wheel/tire specs did you settle on, I know we (and others) went back & forth on that rear tire size.

Awesome Tetris or "Tire Jenga" you performed in that IPL, getting those wheels tire to fit in the fenders is a peace of cake compared to bringing them all to the shop at once, lol.

That's really going to look sweet w/ the drop!

Today I took the duckfeet, snowtires and winter wheel spacers off the car.

Vossens and PSS back on the car for 2016. Feeling pretty good about it, too.

The car is dirty and could really use a wash, but those wheels are stupidly clean.
