Default New Wheels!! Pics!!


I put these on 2 days ago. They are Iforged Aeros..19s in front and 20s in back. But they didnt put the pressure gauges in the tires. Is there a way to have them installed for the monitoring system?

Yea, You have to use wheels straps though. They wont work the conventional way.

Those are absolutely beautiful wheels!

And I agree..I just lowered my car all the way on the factory bolts last weekend at the A&A party...and they are finally settling down to the final height.....AWESOME.

Im gonna post pics tomorrow....but I really recommend the lowering. I havent scraped any worse than before (OK maybe a little) and it looks insanely great.

Now I need to get wheels like yours!!

Thanks fer sharing!~~~JadeDragon
