Looks very good but we need some shots in the sun to get the full effect.

Picked up some Tethys about 30 min from my home. They were in need of paint but straight and had the center caps. I spent every moment I got this week sanding, prep, prime and paint. I will get Tires Monday and swap them out.

Sad thing is, two weeks ago I finally broke down and bought brand new tires, all four. So now I will be selling my 16" wheels and two week old tires 205/55/16s.

I do like those wheels. They had a set of those a my local Pull a Part a couple months ago with good tires for $200 and I didn't have the extra cash at the time. By the time I got paid, they were sold.

I hate that. I let a set go a month ago and was thinking I will never get that chance again. Then these popped up.

Would it be worth trying to sell my rims and tires on the forum or local?

Probably local or maybe even e-bay.

Just read this entire thread. Looks great.

Reminds me of when I put the 97 R spoiler on my T5R. I repaired a crack in it, but after getting all done and installing the crack came back. No way to get behind the crack on the spoiler. I'm the only one that really notices it though.

That looks really damn good. After seeing this picture, I am kickin myself for not borrowing the money to get that set for $200 when I had the chance.

Very nice and unique. R wheels are too common an upgrade.
