Got the tib sway bar on and got new 17's. Running 215/45/17 Tires, It really changed the way it handles. Not the best pic's in the world but.........
They say HotWheels on the center cap.

Do you have springs? Maybe it's just the bigger tires, but it looks like it's riding up high. It could be that I'm used to seeing my 205/40/17s though.

Yeah, I like the wheels. Would look great with a 2 inch drop.

I LOVE 5 spokes!!!!

Although, what's that ''aluminium'' piece in the second pic?

very nice, def. needs a drop though.

kewl, thats not an extra piece its the view of the road on the other side of the right rear wheel that has sunlight on it, between the spokes and just behind the right rear tire. optical illusion making it look like metal or chrome because your eyes see that its right next to the wheel in the foreground . . . pretty cool.

if thats not what you meant, then the only other possible thing you are talking about is the sticker to let the tire installer know where to put the air valve. i think its called the wheels level point or something like that. its the best place to put the valve stem because its where the wheel is most balanced or most level or something like that

The wheels have some kind of picture stamped in the wheel edge, I think it's some kind of copy right Insignya
I know I can't spell.........Especialy with some Michelob in me.....
The pic's are on a slope the right front is leaning down, I'll try to get a pic
on level ground.First time typing with sauce in me in a long while!!!!!!!!

8 Days after buying wheels the clear coat peeled off two of them, I told
the guy at Discount Tire I had a vibration at 65 MPH. They check wheels,
one of them was defective, so they replaced all 4 with MB Motoring Rev's
They had a Road-Force balancer, first time I have seen one of them.
Hope these last longer than 8 Days
