    I looked again - I am pretty sure they are the same. Mine need a good clean and wax, as does the car.

      I said that wrong. I know they are the same rims... they just look different to me seeing them on a car so different. It's refreshing.

        Totally OT, but your sig freaks me out, TJ. It looks kinda like one of those Rippers from Tank Girl.

          Looks great.
          Can't say that I'm a fan of those tails on your car color though.

              how do you like the H&R cabrio specific springs? Looks like quite a big drop there.

                It is more drop than I expected. I am having driveway issues right now - knocked off the IS lip, and still trying to figure out the best way to avoid that. I also need to roll the fenders - at least the fronts. I have some rubbing right now too.

                Ride-wise, the switch to the H&R and Bilsteins is great. Of course, I was running on Stock springs and blown Monroe Matics before. Add to that one of my RSMs was shot, and you can see why it would be much different!

                  They look a lot better in person. I need to get some better pictures of the tails. I agree that in the picture they look a little funny.

                        I agree. On that color car, I think all red tails would look better than the smoked.

                          where exactly do you purchase those rims? they are replicas made in 4X100, correct?

                            You can't buy them new anywhere that I know. There are not many sets around. I know of 4 here on the board. I just got mine, so they are not for sale. I doubt the others are either. If you can find a set, they will go for close to a grand.
