brother, you're sooo right..

Voice59 · 09-27-2013, 10:01 PM

yeah, I learned the hard way with my other car. and then a neighbor told me that people were lifting my car cover and looking at my wheels. I said ok...and put 2 wheel locks on every lug. LOL

2 wheel locks? Why not put all 20 of the volk lugs on

All 20 ARE on. But it's 2 a piece.

Wondering if I shouldn't just sell my wheels and buy something more suited to FI. Problem is I have 1k into the wheels in powder alone.

Voice59 · 09-27-2013, 11:11 PM

More suited meaning wider?

dmhenderson · 09-27-2013, 11:19 PM

Yes, wider.

Voice59 · 09-27-2013, 11:32 PM

You might just have to take that as a loss. Sell'em..maybe bump the price up by 350 for the powdercoat. But I mean... if you bought a GTM kit what's a little loss in cash to put the power to the pavement.

Already used that excuse to upgrade to ART pipes and GT-R spark plugs. Wheels will have to wait (at least for now).
