holy rice-a-roni!!
wheels look good, but please:
lower it
tuck the exhaust tip
black out the chrome on the back and sides
lose the hitch logo
Oh, OK, if you say so. Let me get right on that. How about you do what you want to your car and I'll do what I want to mine?

DVN, I love painted wheel with metal rim. Don't let the other guys get you down.
However, if those are vortex generators on the spoiler you have too many. There is technical data on the spacing. Too many just adds more drag. That is only if you seek to have them as functional.

Sorry man. I didn't mean to hate on your ride, but it's just so busy between the VG's, double chrome on the side (strip and handle), and the hitch cover and huge tip out back.

That is a huge tip!! But he probably had to do that becuase of his tow package.

they would probably be more effective there too.

I thought that as well but they are just a bit too long to fit there. Also, per Airtabs installation specs: "Airtabs™ should be installed as close as possible to the back (trailing) edge of the vehicle. "

They are actually spaced exactly per Airtabs installation specs. I was very meticulous with the spacing. "Install Airtabs 3 per foot which is one every 4 inches on center."

No worries. I like chrome.
I do agree on the tip though. It is slid as far as possible onto the muffler. I have to see if I can get the muffler to slide in a bit further on the pipe. Kinda wish I could hide the hitch somehow but it is used regularly to carry my MTB.

Sega gets wheel and tires
Took Sega to D&S Custom Automotive, same guys that did my fog lights. Had them swap my wheels from my 02 Pontiac Sunfire and TPMS out my stock wheels. Ordered 1" bolt adapters, after they installed the adapters my bolts still stuck out. So they had to use two 1/8" spacers to avoid problems. They "poke" (1st time using that word) n I like how it looks. They are Urban Racing Wheel Type 8. 18x7 215/40/r18 all seasons. I wanted summer tires but I forgot to mention that when I ordered them.
