and Viace, its not about spending alot of money to have "baller status", its about paying for quality parts.

I totlly gree, Im not knocking you bout spending grips on rims I am agreeing with your decision to by the wheels you are getting. I know you get what you pay for but alot of wheels are manufactured the same, cnt wait to see your car dumped on the new shoes.

yeah all wheels and wheel companies do not make there wheels all the same. theres either cast or forged. thats why u get what u pay for with top of the line wheels.

Glad to see everything came along. I take it you are going for the time attack look now rather than show and straight line racing.

I can't wait till those SE RPF1's are completed... I am trying to get my DP on them as well before they are gone.

Cause when their gone, their gone, mwhahahaha.

Car looks good, I like it better at that height. I wouldn't say lower it any more than that, you're probably already going to have a little bit of an issue with those wheels at that height, with 255's.

Still, thats going to be a badass setup. 255's are awesome under a tc. :D
