Looking good Pete...I'm surprised the camera didn't fog when you went outside.

Man, those look REALLY sharp IMHO. So how'* the car handle/ride with them? Any differences that you've noticed?

Thanks for the compliments! I really couldn't be happier with the rims. They just need some Potenzas! The car definitely has come a long way since last April, inside and out.

As far as the improved handling, I haven't tried to test it since I have a very bad hub bearing, and my shocks/struts need to be replaced, and probably my TR ends. When I get all that replaced and get Potenzas I won't be afraid to zip around corners a bit quicker.

BTW, I'm happy with my non-black-doesn't-show-dirt-and-scratches-colored car.
