Looking good Dave. You need to drive that down to Reno next month for Pandemonium, would be a big hit.

So there's a guy here selling a set of those 18" enkei/scion wheels that came as an option for 200 with tires. If I bought those, would I have to use different lug nuts or can i use the nuts that came with my stock 17" wheels?

Well..... after late start, some ibuprofen.. and a run to the parts store...finally got the brakes installed, with a set of H&R 15mm spacers & studs to clear the calipers
bled the brakes, think will need to do again in am.. still felt a bit soft, took it for a quick run up/down the street.... also tested out the S/C...
2 things besides needing to bleed the brakes again... 1) s/c belt squeals... need to figure out how to lessen that.
2) and even more important.... after having your car apart, make sure you at least put the hood latch brace back on... or else when you stomp on the gas

THIS HAPPENS (pic taken after the fact, much more scary when it just flops up while driving)

and here are the brakes installed w/spacers

Yeah the down side was that they had curbbage and a few spots where paint was missing. But they came with a nice set of tires with alot of thread left.
