sharp like pizza i am.. what is the offset? i bet is 35 or 42.

give me an hour or two and i might be able to recall the name and maker of the wheel. but that is going to be a stretch.

cool.

you did well.

soduka 10 is what i recall. maker has not come to me.

if you put some 245 40 18 on them you will be very happy, and have some rim protection..

I paid $20 per tire to have a tire pulled from a wheel and put on a new one.

The rims appear to be ADR Sokudo's... Almost bought a set for my Celica about 5 years ago. (Came in many different colors)

LOL! When I read the title, I thought you "didn't do gold" in reference to taj and him painting his car gold.
