Hey Rob I guess we got something in common with the rims.
how well do they handle NYC's bumps?
Mine are still perfect after hitting many potholes etc..... I believe that my spoons are much stronger than my old TE37's

For the lug nuts,,, I went to autozone and picked them up for .79 cents each 
and they fit like a glove.
Who needs locking nuts when ya never leave the car anywhere outta sight
As for the streets of NYC, DANG they suck but what can I do?
EDIT: BTW for the 15x7 rims... I really would have been stupid to pass up a deal like the one I got one these rims- All thanks to BlueR . The only thing is Marc has no clue how to keep them clean and left that up to me to do. But really its not all his fault He uses Hawk Blue on the street

Are you sure those are 15x7? I coulda sworn Rota wasn't releasing those untill the end of March. I called Cosmic and asked them and they said the 15x7 wasn't even in production yet

.I believe he was saying that the deal he got on these was so good that he couldn't pass them up to wait for the 15x7's.
, glad you like them rob

Re: Bbasso's whip got a new look tonight... (Reid)
Reid, why would you say that? Rotas are an upgrade to a stock R. They are lighter and wider.
And yes this is not a post to stir up trouble but to mearly state the facts.

Rob....switching from 15x6 to 15x6.5 do you "feel" any different on the Azenis' perfromance??
I know there's a big different when you put the 205/50/15 Azenis on 15x7 ...... wonder if any on 15x6.5.

Re: Bbasso's whip got a new look tonight... (WhosITR)
Yes I do feel a difference, The turn in is so much crisper and the squishy squrmy feeling is now a tight and hard feeling. The overall feeling is so much more its hard to explain. Let me just say that I am Very happy with the wheels.
also that the tires have less bulge and are very square to the floor/ street, as to compared to before.
