Reminds me of when a teenage girl gets a new car and wants wheels so daddy buys some the same size as factory so he doesn't have to buy tires too.

 

 

 

No. Me. Gusta.

 

Took the words right out of my mouth. This car is the new celica/scion/etc...

Regards 2 your Scoob: Just because I didn't say it, doesn't mean I wasn't thinking it before. :)

 

FYI, did some research and your hub-centric argument why there are no center caps is bogus. If the wheels don't have them, they don't have them. When I look at those wheels, I think you found 4 spares that are only going to be on the car until your REAL wheels and tires get back from the shop. IMO

If you've found TC105n wheels with both hubcentric rings and caps, I'd love to see it. I'd rather have both, but I was informed by the company I bought these from that it was one or the other with this specific wheel.

 

I have other wheels with both rings and caps, I am quite aware that it is possible. But I was informed that WedsSport, in trying to keep the weight to a minimum with a cast center, milled it in such a way that it was rings or caps, but not both. The guy was willing to send me either, so I'm sure he'd have sold me both if he could.

Interesting... I know exactly what you're talking about, but I don't see that at all. I think the sidewalls are sufficiently small to avoid that. There is more pinch than I was expecting, but I don't think it's that bad.

 

I'm trying to make myself see that, and I can't. Hmm..

 

It doesn't look bad.

 

This however, looks great.

LOOKS great, but I'm sure it won't handle or ride as well.

You gotta be kidding me?

 

We've told him 100x in person his car is gay... :dumb:

 

Well we all know you are an expert in all things gay, so that does not shock me at all.

 

ANYWAY

 

Glad you like it that is all that counts. Now go beat on the car like a cheap whore.

I think I prefer my choice.

Guess I should have gone this route?

^^ looks like complete shit. like a bastardized photoshop job only sadly, it's likely real.

^^ looks great, but 50% of it is the post processing of the photo. narrow DOF but the additonal added fake DOF was done poorly and the glamour glow effect, while I can appreciate it, a bit over done. Blacks are too soft and whites are blown.

 

We can do better shots of your car when it's complete.
