Off Endless Rotaries, a vendor off here.

I think a lot of ppl hate on chrome but for the right wheel and the right car colour it can look nice

Yesterday i got the tires and wheels installed with the TPMS and my light came on and i checked all my pressure and the one was low so i filled it up and it went off by the time i got home it had gone down by 5 pounds i woke up this morning and now its down to 17.5 psi....

looks awesome man, congrats! what offset did you get again (sorry if i missed it if you posted).

As per your tire and losing 5 lbs of air- you may have a leaky TPMS valve- replacing them sometimes causes a small leak. Good news is, TPMS new have gone down in price. I ended up just buying a new one. Dont' wanna hit a pothole running at 17 psi on the new rims good luck!

Evidently "No Parking Anytime" signs become null and void when taking pictures of your new chrome rims -

I didnt lower it and i dont think im going to until i get the body kit, i think it loks good as it is for now, and nah no rubbing issues that i have noticed, i love how the car handles now with these wheels and tires. I have never drove it with stock on so i cant compare it.

I always can get more of these. Just let me know if you need them.

FYI, it's not CHROME.

It's a Powdercoating of sorts that gives the aesthetic properties of a dark tinted chrome without any of the problems like weight, peeling, etc....
