Default my wheels

i finally got my wheels and tires!

i placed my order with ben liu of sp engineering back on april 21st and they came on may 25th, just slightly over one month .

for people interested in the specs, they are:
front: 18x8 +56
rear: 18x9.5 +62

and i got them wrapped in bridgestone potenza s-03 pole position's from the tire rack:
front: 225/40YR-18
rear: 255/35YR-18

i got them mounted yesterday. i tipped the guy an extra $20 so he wouldn't mess up and scratch them. he told me to stay there and watch him too. later, they charged me $100 for the mounting. is that expensive?

many thanks to those on the board who helped me get the right sizing!

here are some pics to enjoy :

looks good, beggin for a drop

100 to mount is kinda steep... but id say worth it if they did a good job.. hard thing about these rims to those who dont norm mount em is knowing their front mount.. otherwise they try and reverse mount em and the end up scratching the silicone bead between the 3 piece.. as long as they hold air.. id say ur 120 was fine..

i pay right around... 76 for dismount/mount/balance so i guess my mount/balance alone would be like 40-50

looks good tho, nice to see u got em quick. the standard fitment/standard color normally come quick.. im currently waiting for my second set of meisters.. 2p tho

I would drop it if you could though, and those offsets seem to allow for it.
