:rofl You should have known that the spacers on that wouldn't end well! I was just about to ask you what offset you got, and if you fudged up and got M3 offests. Glad it can be fixed with removing the spacers though!

In for moar pics!

Well I had 20mm front and 12mm rear

I took them all off then added the 12s to the front and everyone fits nice and flush now.

The ECS ones felt like they were superglued to the car. Turner 20s came right off (have a small ridge to pry into with a screwdriver).

Just gonna hang on to um all for winter setup the way it was.

Had some finish issues already. Flaked off one wheel, look like the guy I paid didnt sand or prime these - just painted and cleared (poorly). Last time I make that mistake.

Dropping them off for real painting on Monday.

Yeah I know but I am really trying to be $ conscious right now. Good thing my wife did our taxes and we got about 90% back of what we paid.

Anyway pix to come but here's a teaser

I have um. Will apply later.


My one wheel still feels fucked up like its not balanced right. Possible for tire deformity to throw it off if like say something heavy was stacked on it for a few months?

Took this while checking pressure again.

Umm.. Are you using the original iPhone, or does your iPhone just take the worst pictures ever? :rofl

From what I can see.. it looks good! As mentioned before, your 'darker contrast' theme is coming along nicely!

Lol no but it was almost pitch black out so I edited it so you could actually see it. Plus I dropped file size to small so it would upload faster. Probably compressed the crap out of it.

It's a great picture for anyone to decide between these two wheels. Just trying to make light of a the situation.

Balancing tires requires air in the tires..lol. That sucks. Where was it leaking?

UdubBadger

one of them was really bad at the beading on the rear facing side in about 6 spots. The other was 2 in the same location but was able to be sealed. I'll find out tomorrow if Wheels America is gonna own up to it or if it's gonna be a fight.

Those wheels look great man, who makes 'em? And did you have any final fitment issues?

UdubBadger

They're just VMRs. And no fit was great after got the spacers worked out.
