Default Update- New Rims or Repair Stock Rims
Hey everyone!

I took the plunge and got new rims! Got 'em at Discount Tire for $98 a piece. I think they look good with the blue paint and I can finally have rims that aren't clouded up and peeling for once... Also, it would've cost $130 a piece to refinish the old ones, and this problem would show up again another 5 years down the road. They also have locking lug nuts on them (just like the locking hub caps I had on my Olds 98 back in the day); so they won't get stolen. Besides, the alarm would go crazy if the car was put on jacks while it was armed.:p

Looks amazing, I hate when uneven spoked rims play tricks on my eyes.
