Da Hashi thanks I'll keep a eye on them. Is that all I need to be aware of? I read some of the other threads and it seemed a lot more complicated. But I am a little **** about things

Wheels mounted

got the wheels mounted and the TPMS concerns I had where for not. I went into info: overload. I don't know if any one else did the crome wheel exchange with LA wheels but I'm thourghly happy with mine.They came well protected, no marks or scratches and I got them in TX in 3 days. They are infinity wheels. I went with this deal because all of the wheels I really like cost an arm and a leg. My out of pocket cost was about $1175. That included paying shipping to here, the return of my wheels and mounting and balance.When I get all my other mods done and save some money I'll sell these chromes and get the twenties I really want. The install and balance went well (discount tire) and they look great. To me this seems like a reasonable way to get some quality wheels at a real good cost. If someone in CA got them you could scratch another $250.00. The catch is, I don't know if the deal's still on. Also they hold $2,200 on your card till they get your wheels in good shape. If any pit falls develop I'll let everyone know immediately.

chrome wheel up date

still happy with the chrome exchange. They held 190.00 of my depoist to repair two of the wheels I returned. No problem they where up front from the start. In the paperwork I received they stated a lot of the wheels they get have problems and suggested having the rims spin balanced before returning them. I took my car to a track before and got a little over zealous hence, the damage. Still haven't figured out how post pic's52:

Intrim wheels

These aren't my first choice but I just ordered FI exhust and HFC'S plus I'm getting coil covers. So my cash flow is becoming limited. My thoughts are I think they add a nice look. When I get everything else I want I'll save some cash, sell these for what I have invested then get what I really want.
