Finally gave in and got new rims.

[cydewaze]

Also did springs, MM C/C plates, poly steering rack bushings, and the last 2 poly IRS bushings. I hope it settles a bit more, especially in the back.

nice rims

Looks good, are they silver or chrome? The back is kinda high but it should settle a lil more as they wear in... Nice!

They're called "hypercoat", aka black chrome. I believe they're power coated black before they're chromed. I thought it would look good against the DSG.

Eibach pro kit w/ MM Poly isolators. I'm told it will settle some by 2 other people who have the same setup.

It's definitely lower in the front now - I can tell by the curb at my parking spot. The back is still too high, and if it doesn't settle by at least 1/2" in a few weeks, I'll pull the poly isolators out and put rubber ones in.

The wheels are 18x9 front and 18x10 back.

Oh man does it hurt to see those pics. For a moment there I thought I was looking at my old '03. Love that DSG paint. Take me for a ride?

 

[I-CAN-STANG]

DSG and SB are definetely eye catchers!

 

[JasonHogan]

Sorry Bob! But yeah, a ride anytime you want if you're ever in MD.

Hmmm, I was thinking. Perhaps you should register the domain name "infinibob.com" :-D

Yep, 35% is going on it soon. :thumbsup:

(it's the legal limit here, and yes, you get nailed if you're over at all)

Very nice rims. I hate to say it, but I think they look a little like the C6 Corvette rims. They look awesome on your car.
