Update on my base model.
The wheels came in....
They sent the wrong size, 17x9.75
I knew they looked way too wide. I thought at first I was a Ray-tard and ordered the wrong ones until I read the packing slip. They were supposed to be 17x8.25. Next Level was awesome about exchanging them though. But there is my progress so far and Spring 2012 pile just grows more. It's going to be painful to stare this stuff for 5 months.

Haha, i understood what you were saying though. Jesus, could you imagine the insane mexi-flush I'd be rocking with 10in wide rims? There's no way those wouldn't rip **** up in the inner fender and struts on full lock turning. But man you should see the insane amount of concave these things had.
Wicked....

Can you imagine the WTF? face i had reading the labels and then pulling these things out of the box. If only we could go that aggressive. something with that much concave deepness would look crazy on our cars. Funny part is the 15 inch version are even more aggressively deep than even these are.

winter mode anyone?
Just went snowboarding for the 2nd time of the season today... felt good to put on the bridgestone tires...but had to change my sportlines for the stock springs (back to 4x4 mode), and I'm still waiting on my damn rally armor.

I like it much better...
less extravagant; more clean! me like.
the only thing I like better from the 'old' bumper is the grill between the headlights
