had the same exact problem. i finally decided it was time to get a replacement when people started arguing over the free pump. this stupid dumbf*ck lady pissed me off. the pump was just lying there, i was so nice about it, "excuse me i need to inflate my tire, it won't take but 2 seconds. she grabbed it and shouted at me "NO"
anyways, your car looks like mine! however, i do not think the new rims satisfy the car. don't get me wrong, it's a beauty and congrats on them, rims maybe overdone design and seem a little bit out of date but i've definitely never seen them before anywhere. those types of designs look a little inside out. maybe it's just my preference i like rims that pop out. then again i only like two or three rims and am very picky. chromed parts look awesome though! 20% tint is just like mine. sweet.
nittos are great and have been around forever. glad you decided to go back to 17's instead of 18's.

HE DID do a DIY on the chrome paint, and showed pics of it months ago.
As for the rims, those are Th3 s3x mang. Really. I TOLD you that the lighter rims make a hell of a difference, didn't I?

very nice interior, love how those silver go so well with the black. Very clean tape job as well.
The wheels seems to be a bit too blingy for me, but the weight sounds awesomly light.

Ye, I learned the hard way. I was detailing one of my Dad's cars when I was like 15, and automatically thought:
"Hey, really shiney wheels! Must be chrome!"
Grabbed some chrome cleaner and sprayed it on. Awmegawd, I was in panic mode for like three hours buffing and buffing and cleaning and cleaning to get it to look somewhat normal. Thankfully I only sprayed one wheel with it.
My Dad was none too pleased, although you can't really tell... after I slaved for hours to get it back to 90% condition. owned.gif
