I found this site accidentally by doing a Google search for a set of rims I want to get. I did not know this existed and I'm glad I found it.

Just wanted to say hello to everyone.

I have an '01 GLS 5spd that I use for work. Since it is primarily a work car, I have not done much to it: tint, stereo, wing (factory). It is the Ocean Blue color.

The stereo consists of 2 12's and about 1000 watts. I'm going to pulling everything and adding a third 12 in the next few months.

The only upgrade I plan on doing is a set of wheels (how I found the site).

I'm also a member of the Yotatech and VCA forums so I'll be sure to search before asking any ?s. :D

Yea, I just checked your link after posting. Looking good. I like your fog lights. I'm going to have to check into those.

I messed up real bad about three months ago. Someone had 4 GT rims on eBay WITH brand new factory tires....Buy it now for 300+120 for shipping. The tires themselves were going for 420 let alone mounting...etc and then the rims themselves. I did not buy them and they ended up going for more than the buy it now.

Live and learn. I'm looking at ADR Battle Exe 17's now. When I did the Google, one of the members here has them on his/her car, but there were no good pics of them for me to tell what they will look like.

I claim Pittsburgh but you will find me floating between Washington and Weirton. I grew up in Washington and my friends and family are all still there. My wife and I have a house in Weirton but a looking to move back to PA soon. You are not far away at all.

welcome to the site!

Thanks. I was checking out the pics of your car. Looks real good. Your car makes me want to do a few more upgrades other than just the wheels....
