Default I just couldn't wait!!!

I picked my wheels up on Wednesday night, hardly slept because I was washing clothes and getting ready for a business trip the next day. Thursday morning arrives - - I'm at my Buddy's Goodyear Center at 0700 waiting for them to mount my wheels and tires. I still got to Atlanta in time for work.

Here are some pics of the wheels mounted. Unfortunately they are in the garage at the Sheraton!!!!! I am still on business :blueangel:




:D

Looks great. Those wheels sure change the look of the car, huh.

Almost feels like you have a new car now.

I think you missed the parking spot by a few feet :p:

Great looking wheels, I am thinking about those for mine but that's a long way away. How much did you pay for yours, if you don't mind me asking?

Good looking wheels.

Looks like you should have been given a wave off and go around for another landing approach. Parking like that where I live will buy you a $100 towing fee.
