ordered some new rims
well, i just got back from the middle east yesterday, and ordered the new rims today. i know some of you won't like them and say "you should leave the ones that are on it" but, it's what i like so, i hope some of you will also.
they are bonspeed ramone's. 20x8.5 w/ 255/40/20 front and 20x10 w/ 295/40/20 rear. both rims will have 4.5" of bs. i chopped them on to get and idea.

Re: ordered some new rims
color is hugger orange. it was origanally lowered by heating the springs(i didn't do it)but, i have 2.5" spindles and 2" springs for the front, 5" springs and 2" blocks that are for the rear. that will all go on in the next couple of weeks
