Yeah this is what I am thinking too. Thinking the storm trooper look is what I am after.

I wonna keep my stock and lower my white frs to 32mm front/28back, spacers to get them flush and maybe paint them gunsmoke and call it a day

Having a pristine set of stock wheels for when you sell the car will probably be worth more in the end than the money you'd get for them separate from the car.

I would be interested in buying the wheels and tires for $100.00 for all four. I live in Lubbock, Texas

I was thinking about sandblasting my wheels and painting them the same color as my silver FR-S. If I bought the ones you have I would not ruin mine.

a set of brand new wheels and tires will fetch much more then $100

MVJ1975 · 06-15-2012, 01:29 PM

They're going to host my winter tires, like others have said.

Stack them in a corner of my shed in the back yard for when I inevitably decide to switch cars in a year or two. I actually still have my OEM Tundra 18" Steel wheels and OEM tires stacked a sitting on my front porch hoping someone will come steal them.

As others have said, keep 'em.

Perfect winter wheels.

rikdrt1 · 06-15-2012, 10:33 PM

i wish they were 1-2" wider - other than that i do like them. Remember this car kickd ass with these stock tires so they arent all that bad right out the dealer...

but i agree, a little more meat makes them look so much nicer. i guess it depends onyour priorities and checkbook....

1) Arrange them in a parking space as if though they were still on a car. 2) Go inside. 3) Come back out when somebody's watching. 4) Loudly exclaim, "Oh no, somebody stole my car! Thank god I was using 'X' Brand locking lug-nuts!"

5) Collect endorsement check.
