If you don't mind me asking, how much did you get your 8 for?
Since they're bringing in the 09s are the prices dropping?

Crazy, well it's nice to know that you're alive. I'm guessing it's being totalled?

Nope, mine are 18x8.5 all around. My next set of wheels will probably be staggered though, 9.5 in back and 8.5 in front.
