F M L !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this was my plan "get off work, install rims"
i got home, nice and sunny outside, yet a lil cold
so im like big deal, ill go wash the car and then install the tires at home
so i get into the carwash, over half hour in the line up.. i go inside for about 20 minutes, i get out ITS SNOWING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! like wat za faack?!
im like screw it, im still installing them
i open the package, there are no bolts! idiot forgot to send them!
im STILL installing them!
installed tire number one, snow slowed down
installed tire number two, snow stopped
installed tire number three, it started raining
installed tire number four.. waiit, tire is mounted wrong on the rim.. faacckkk it, i installed it
all tires are mounted, now time to put the center caps back on, which i tried to do but couldnt put them on, i think the bolts are too long they are touching the cover, fml again

didnt snap any pictures, because they will look like *** at night. its really dark outside now
tomorrow im taking it to GM to flip the tire on the rim and maybe see if they have some shorter bolts or something

there was one thing im affraid of, and i was right
the rims look nice, but nowhere near as good as the older ones.. but again, i doubt anything would look better IMO than my older ones

Wait, what happened to the older ones? Did you rape a curb or something?

they actually do, i kinda regret it already.. but they were in rough shape up close (2 winters already and the salt on the road kills the finish) regardless i needed new rubber so i thought a different look for a while would be a good idea
now those might be my winter rims and im really considering buying the same rims as before in 20s for the summer

they look better than I was expecting! I like the red line as it breaks up the tire and rim since they are both black...which I normally am not a fan of all black wheels, but those actually look nice on there!
