Well, its how I wanted. I couldn't find a set of wheels I was willing to pay for. Especially since I live life with no debt other than house and car. Also have a 6 month old son and 7 year old son that mean a bit more than the car. Your wheels are far more than I paid. Promise you that. All I paid for was materials.
I am a fan of it, though some of you aren't. The back is a lil different than others.

Those rims look really light weight - what do they weigh?
