While I was pulling the wheels today to check all the front end parts for ordering before the price goes nuts shortly, and while I had the front wheel off, I decided to check those wheels I forgot i had. I find that with the offset, that they sit out almost to the fender lip. I like the way that they sit, but since I don't have any 16 inch tires right now, I'll go ahead and strip the clear coat and redo them. I have the caps and the nuts in my shed, so once I finish them, I'll put on some nice tires.

I've only used Gabriel's once - and I hated them.

Love those wheels though!

I guess maybe I need to go read it again. Sounded to me like he's replaced several parts and still at square one.

Lol... yes it does. Haven't been told to eff off for a while. Just trying to teach the guy some common courtesy on a free site with free advice.
