also, the old vw steelies wont fit. they are 4x115.

yea, I didn't think the VW rims would fit.
I hope to get it painted by the end of next month.

I DO want to do some pin strips That one looks good, maybe
if the face was more of a skull than it would be ON! I will deff, keep
you in mind after I get it painted, I am getting it painted semi pro. with a satin
flat black, or a dupont, "hot rod black"

Where did you get them from and how much?
I put a lot of miles on my car. Will they hold up to everyday
rough roads that I travel?

Will they work with a wider tire?

The best I can tell is it is about the same tone as the TRD, but prob. about twice as loud.
I had a local shop do all the work for me. I think I spent about $300 or so.

read here:

its Lucas Automotive.
Its been on the xB for 5 days now, still holding. If you read the link, Stickler also got it from them, but I think he had some problem with it. On the last few page, another owner got portawall from ebay, and he put it on a little wider tire, he said its still good, so I guess it should be fine.
