don't spray paint inside there, contact who makes the wheels and ask if you can buy the center caps or where you could buy them at.

speaking of tires....lol, ummm i blew one out today, i was drifting around on the snow and well, it was abit too much and the thing blew out. i feel sooo stupid hah, but its covered by warrenty so i already got another one. THE DUDE AT Discount auto KNOWS ME BY FIRST NAME!!!! LMAO, free tire ehh, better then paying 175$ for one right, even 125$ with my discount. While i was there i asked about the rims and he said they are coming in tomarow, so ill probably take the tib in the evening tomarow and get them put on then or on friday. ill see, but trust me, there will be pics.



EDIT
MORAL OF THE STORY, dont drift in forest preserve parking lots where there was broken glass under the snow.

ha...you dummy. me and a friend were doing the same thing in a churce parking lot for like two hours one night. i finally got bored and didn't want to waste more gas so i decided it was time to leave. as we were leaving he tries to be slick and slides the back end of my accent into a curb and snaps the spindle and pushes the tire under the car.

does the discount tire get as annoied with you as we do.

moral of my story...none, church parking lots make excelent winter play grounds.

naw the peeps at Discount Tires have learned to call me by first name, lol, they love me, theres a dude there with a 99Tib also, im gonna ask him if hes intrested in joining our site next time, his Tib is sooo pimped out he cant even drive it anymore since its illegal. So anyway heres an update, i went there today, they bring out the Traffiks, they check if they fit and FU**, Discount Tires did everything right and all except the Konig distributers messed up and sent me 5x115.13 insated of 4x114.3. So, they are reordering them, and they should come in monday mad.gif , this sucks. i got 40$ off though for the labor so thats cool. Srry for the delay guys.

That's a good thing about Discount..you can bargain with them...they gave me free hubcentric rings when I had my 17" wheels put on and gave me a discount off the tires.

Ya, but the dude knows me there alot and he gives me discounts on everything, i didnt even ask about the 40$ off, they realy do have good service and everything, like they did everything right, it was just the distributer who sent the wrong wheels, but they are realy great. And their prices are not only good they are still willing to always negotiate if theres ever any problem.
