Some pics of my rims installed!

Hey everyone, I was originally going to put the rims on in Spring, but I couldn't fight the urge, and installed them. I barely drive the X in winter, so I think I'll be ok.

Anyways, onto the pics! The car needs a drop badly. I'll be getting Intrax springs in February.


This is how I brought the rims to my shop, just thought it was a funny pic. It looks as if I'm kidnapping the rims, lol.







Some Random shots of the car with the new shoes..


















The rear wheels/tires look very beefy. I'm running 20mm spacers in the rear.



And here are some random daytime Angel Eye shots.










Next up for mods this year are:

1. Springs (Intrax 1.5" all around).
2. Paint the passenger side mirror, (Sister went grocery shopping, and someone stole the mirror cover, so I had to buy a new one) .
3. New Brakes (StopTech Stage 2 upgrade) My brakes are worped from only 13k miles?
4. 4.6is kit.
5. Aluminum Running Boards with fender extensions.
6. Blackout Grill.
7. Eisenhaus Racing Exhaust.
8. AFE Intake.
9. Conforti Shark Injector.
10. Lighting upgrades (6000k D2S bulbs, HID fogs, LED front and rear turn signals, etc.).

Hope you all enjoyed the pics. I'm loving the X right now.

WoW! Those look awesome, & huge! Are they 22's? Not much sidewall there. How do they ride? Do you have spacers up front too? - looks a bit wide there too...

Yep, 22x10.5 all around. They ride great, I was very surprised. The tires (Dunlop Sp9000) are great too, surprisingly quiet and comfortable. And I have 5mm spacers in front.
