I've seen at least a handful of VWs and Audis around my area with custom Euro plates on the front with tag numbers that match the standard issue Maryland plates on the back. I'm not sure if they get any grief from law enforcement about it, but I've seen them.

They're here. Not going on until March (with new summer tires) but I get to admire them until then.



And I had no idea that my wheels had a soul! That's always a nice bonus. Thanks, Rays!

I feel your pain. I collected my second curbing this evening. Same corner. I rotated the wheels so now I have two wheels that I need to try and fix

The 57xtreme only come in 7" wide in 17". Two offsets in that size, et50 and et42.

So, I just found this site. It's like threadless, but for car nuts.

http://blipshift.com/

Go like this shirt:

http://blipshift.com/products/some-assembly-required

So we can get a new batch of 'em!

That's a great shirt. I love the Kimi Raikkonen shirt. That was the greatest thing i've ever seen in F1. I'm a huge Lotus fan so of course Kimi is my favorite driver anyways.

It's about 25 mins down the road from me. Still waiting on the FR-S to come in, but I could bring the Miata down perhaps.
