    yeah i need to get tires...lugs and i think center caps? (not sure if caps come w/rims?) Any ideas on a local place to get the tires and mounting? clueless on the lugs but i think i have to get special lugs (tuner)right?

    No Problem, when i got rotas for my civic that i used to have i ordered the wheels and tires from there and had them mounted and everything. I also had my kumho's put on my wrx there. They've done really good work all the times me and several of my friends have gone.

    What color is your rex??? You gotta post some pics when you get em on!!!

    yea man i jsut put my wheels on and im in need of new tires BAD where is the best place with cheap tires that are good? Or wheres the cheapest place to get mount/balance?
     
  13. Cool man, that'll look good..... I had a hard time deciding between Subzeros and Actions, they'll go good with your car. I got tires and had everything mounted at Discount Tire, they did an excellent job. The wheels should come with centercaps (ugly ones.... I have extra ugly ones if you need them :) ), lugs are extra. I got the McGards, but SubyDude and some other vendors have less expensive alternatives. Can't wait to see it!

    Ok...i just ordered the McGard lugs....I'm definitely going to check out Discount Tire...and see what they can do for me....The center caps are kinda ugly...on black rims you don't notice it so much....is there any alternatives to the faux cf caps?

  16. I hated the cheap carbon-look caps.... I got the regular black ones.... I think they're called the Daytona caps.... much better
