^^^ not at all..
I got into a Small accident so my insurance company gave me the money to get it fixed , i just payed the difference, Which was 500 out of my pocket for rims and tires!!
But if you want to buy them , it would cost about 1300

when nemesis said paint the rotors, i think he really did mean paint the rotors. he was referring to the rust on the hub (does not come in contact w/ the brake pad). if you have a good dealership they should do it for free, or at very little cost to you.....
rims look good. im actually looking for rims for my titanium 8 right now...

Nice... I'm still currently on my rim hunt. I like the depth shown in this shot. I'm looking for something in a similar spoke design, staggered, but maybe with a polished lip and gunmetal or black spokes for my Whitewater Pearl.

30lbs ike? wow really.. that's pretty heavy. Yeah i also have to agree about the tire size, at 1st when i thought about it it did seem very narrow. But hey i just took my friends advice about them.
I never would have thought it would have weighed 30lbs! but that's alright.
I was planning on going with a Nitrous setup, but from doing alot more searching n etc, i'm probably going to be going with the greddy turbo. So that should make up for it i guess. But hey thanks alot!! ike!
Oh and btw! what website did you get this info from?
