    well they're not 'new' per-say but they're new to me and i love 'em! :D see what ya think. all 4 wheels and all 4 centers and they look great. the worst wheel is pictured, and has been curbed once but that's it. think they're worth what i have in them? (ie. $100) :D:D:D :yahoo:

    Wow, you really got ripped on that one! You might as well sell them to me for $75 and try and make up on your loss. :D

    They look really good! So which one are they going on, the Grabber or the 4dr?

    i have another set just like your's. they're aftermarket wheels and they're almost as nice as the ones i just got.

    im going to clean my new ones up over the next couple of days and then take some pictures. then ill prolly buy 4 new tires and go ahead and put them on my 4dr :)

    Does your car have disc's on the front? You'll find that there are 2 different wheels, the 74's had a bigger hole to clear the hub on the rotor. I once found that out the hard way. Awesome deal, I have a set I'm thinking of using.
