No problem Perks.

Deathwalkin, the wheels are 5Zigen FN01R-C hot versions in bronze. 18x9.5 +35 with Falken Azenis rt-615 275/35/18. The total price (which included shipping, mounting and balancing, hub centric rings, center caps, lugs, and new TPMS sensors) was $2259.

That seat is sick. They don't make brackets for our cars for it?

They do, but I decided to save some money and make them myself. Cost like $50 in materials and I welded it all together in about 4 hours. One more to go!

Plus, i can position the seat exactly where I want it.



Heres a pic of mount. I need to go back and modify the rear to brring the butt lower... then paint them. Should I get VR red paint?? LOL
