Default New Shoes for the aztec green hatch (56k-grab a snickers)

Well, I've posted some pics on some other threads, but just wanted to make a general one about the car. I recently purchased the HKS hi-power exhaust, and got a benen lower tie bar. Then it was time to switch the heavy SI rims to something lighter and nicer. I got these SSR type X's in 5/10 condition, and the color wouldn't like nice on my car anyways, so I had the damages filled and sanded down, and then powdercoated highgloss white. Just wanted to share with you guys some pics I had them done at a shop for $60 a wheel. I cracked this front lip and my new wings west RS lip is getting painted, i'll have better pictures once I get that on. Anyways on to the pics

p.s. plates are registered to a totally different house.

thanks guys,

It was a toss up between silver and white, and I've already had silver rims, so I decided to switch it up a bit with the white.

Yeah once I get the lip on, I'll take some nice pics with nicer backdrops and what not. Just shot some quick ones while the wheels were clean... cuz by the end of the week i'm sure they'll look gunmetal lol

hahahaha, you know whats funny, I got them for a decent price, and figured even if I got them, fixed them, and STILL didn't like them, I could sell them and get my money back. Cuz you are absolutely right, i've seen these on other cars and pictures of the rims themselves and I was kinda iffy on them. But I guess since I know they are pretty much BRAND new and they aren't too common, i'm starting to get used to them.
