Default My New 19" Wheels

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/66595/dec_15_2003_007.jpg"></center><p>I just picked up these wheels from Orange County last week and put them on yesterday. They are really sweet and hold to the road so much better than my stock 15" wheels. They are 19" Moda R6 wheels with BF Scorchers (Not the best tires but I got the set up of wheels plus tires for $700.00 so I can't complain.) The car needs to be lowered but I want to wait till I can afford shocks and springs, possibly coilovers. Any Suggestions?

Default Re: don't hit a pothole

Yeah, I'm watching out for them...the roads I drive are pretty pothole free.

Those things are going to bend before you leave your driveway.

Default Very nice.....Now for some advise (((listen)))

Get on the phone with tire rack and buy yourself a 5th wheel. Now that are still available by the manufacture. Trust me. 19"s.....Don't hit a pothole because them rubber bands(tires) that wrap around the wheel are not going to save your rim.
5th wheel for that rainy day, if u know what i mean=P
