Sucks about the hub, at least it was an easier fix for the fronts. The wheels look good on the car, tho.

And, on a plus, no cars were hit or damaged today.

No problem. They actually weren't as bad as I expected.

For lugs, you should ask MattD where he got his set last week.

Discount Tire has some decent ones I believe.

Mark, that looks like a PITA!

I'd like to say that I've been spray painting bomber cars since before some of you were born.

the fronts are on the car now. had to mod the brackets alittle bit and make 1/4" spacers the 1/2" ones were to much and made them sit funny and hit the rotor's.

also put one of the rims on the car to get a good look at the full new set up. It looks bad ass

Looks good, I hope from a distance it doesnt look like those are rubber band tires, since you had to get such small tires. I think you should have gone with 17s max because 18s on such a small car may look odd.

I would have but I have 425.00 into the rims and tires so I could not pass it up. also craigs mini does not look bad with 18's and the same tires on it.
Also a 40 would rub on the inner fenders and throw off the speedo
