Idk.... I like them, but I've always loved how the MSR wheels looked on his car. This is going to be interesting to see when they are on but I'm not sold yet if I like them more than the MSR's... I'm reserving judgement until they're all on the car.

Me too ryan. I think they will look awesome.

Thanks kinkyred!


Nas - no way!!! These center caps for a set of 4 are 130$ alone. They are staying. Lol

I havr always liked that style wheel for our car...there is just a lot more money that would need to be spent on repairs before i could justify that nice of wheels

01-11-2014, 11:59 PM
you're buying them a couple at a time? lol why not wait and get the set?

curious to see how they look on the car, just put them on one side to give us a gander. wheels can look great on their own and then silly on the car. i'm super picky on wheels though lol

sleepyalero
01-12-2014, 12:16 AM
Couldnt wait. Lol. Bought 2 now that way im committed to the set. And I cant put them on one side of the car right now. I have the suspension and everything off the front of the car on both sides for some maintenance atm. It will be awhile. The two I have now are going on the rear end tomorrow though. So I can move my jack holding up the rear end to the front of the car to pull the axles out and put the ass end on the ground

I dont mind a slight misty rain so long as the roads dont get soaked. I dont mind cloudy days. Or cloudy/clear nights.

I hate snow, salt, steady/heavy rain. And super cold temps.

Snow isn't what messes up a car. It dries off nasty on them but that's not what causes cars to rust. You really need to watch out for salt, that's the killer on metal.

sleepyalero
02-11-2014, 09:55 PM
I know I dont like a dirty car!!

And no breathing is fine. But I had a bitch in my car one night and she was pissed. We were about an hour away from her house. She slammed my pass side door when she got in. I bitched her out and almost left her ass on the curb. I dont like people who disrespect my car.

I breathed in his car and still made it where we were going, he actually had my little brother with him a decent amount of ASS weekend, and to me that shows that he isn't THAT discretionary about who rides in his car...I like pictures of my car in the snow when it's clean, unfortunately between salt and sand (salt solution is sprayed before snow sand after) it gets a little messy when it snows

Man, bitches will be bitches though. Just gotta get ya pimp hand strong and slap a bitch, that's just being real. On a serious note though, if a female can't respect your car or your love for cars, then she's not the one.

Nothing pisses me off more than people trying to smoke in my car. I've left people before for doing shit like that. I've tossed cigarettes out the window, I actually made someone waste a whole pack because he kept insisting.

My general rules are simple... don't smoke in my car, don't bring illegal narcotics in my car, don't stink up my car, don't leave a mess, don't request use of the radio to play bullshit music, and leave my gas tank where it was when you got in it if you're requesting a ride. Other than that, anything goes.

I smoke in mine so thats not an issue to me haha but yeah I agree.

Nas Escobar
02-14-2014, 06:32 PM
I don't smoke soo yeah, plus I feel if you really love your car, why would you disrespect it by having it smell like that? After a while it's hard to take out the smell because it's so penetrated into the interior

sleepyalero

This. I don't like people who disrespect my car either. I look at it like this, I don't disrespect your car so don't disrespect mine. As for rules I only really have 2 when it comes to people riding with me. One is NO smoking and two is don't leave it a mess.

Me too I dont let people touch my paint :lol: I hate finger prints on the paint

That01Olds
02-16-2014, 04:55 AM
People touching the paint doesn't bother me so much because I wash the car regularly and the finger prints come off. However I don't like it when people lean or sit on my car. I had someone sit on my hood when I had the Alero right before I sold it and they left a nice dent in the middle of the hood. Needless to say I wasn't too happy when that happened and ever since then I tell people not to lean or sit on my car.

sleepyalero
