Will try and take a pic tomorrow. This is without any lowering springs.
Went to my local Discount Tire and they ordered the Motegis although they don't carry them. http://www.discounttire.com/ They swapped over the sensors, mounted, balanced, furnished lug nuts & socket, & torqued all for less than $550.

I would think there would be no problem with the TMPS do-hickeys on the wheels. I like those rims btw, if they had them in black and 17" and I'd like to have them.
[edit]
*gasp* They do! But.. they're shiney
I want flat black.. oh well.

BTW, I think a paint shop could probably de-gloss those pretty reasonably.

Oh I was planning on buying Konig Feathers and having them painted flat black if I can't find something else that I like. Or I might end up getting Exel TZ-10s instead of the Feathers. Though I just saw on 1010 tires they supposedly have a black Feather in 5x100.. but Konig says nothing about those. Weird..
[edit]
Woah wait you can degloss rims? That opens so many doors to nice rims... >:] Though there are some Konigs in the PPC area that are black with red on the rim, which looks nice, but I have no red on my car so.. don't know how that would look.

New to the boards, hate to start off by posting a pic, but hey, gotta start somewhere, right?
Got her just shy of a month ago. Planning to drop her about two inches sometime in the next couple of months as well. From there, we'll see what happens.

You might take a look at white rims. very Euro and, IMO, very sexy looking.

I don't mind the steelies w/ trim rings for now, and it's hard to tell in the pic, but the rims were actually wet-sanded and painted an almost gunmetal color. Turned out quite nicely.
