Sorry to hear that, walk0080. This is one of the reasons I will be shopping for inexpensive rims for my winter wheels next year. I don't want to risk having to replace one of my Challenge wheels.

I have some 16s with winter tires on them in great shape. Just no TPMS. I installed basic valve stems. I bought some 17s with Blizzaks. PM me if you are interested in them. My Challenge wheels are safely stashed in my garage too.
Bought new tires... air filter... spark plugs and rear boot emblem. I broke the other one trying to get it off the car to paint. Suppose to be nice next week so looking forward to fix a couple issues.
It was over 55 degrees today! Only been that warm two days since I bought the Blue Meanie last Halloween! Sure like driving her when the tires aren't so dang cold and stiff! Some fresh oil and topped up the coolant and a nice drink of gas and a brisk drive in the country! A good day!
I ordered a NM Torque insert and an AccessPort....coilovers have arrived WMW downpipe should be in Tuesday. Hopefully I'll be ready for Sundays track day .
Ran some errands today and almost got run over by a Subi STI. Dunno why but every STI driver in this city seems to be a d-bag? Or they just hate mini owners I guess.
They're the same here...

What I've seen is re-affirming my decision to keep mine. And since I'm keeping, I'm pretty close to pulling the trigger on these.
I think it is a requirement to be an ******* if you buy an STi, EVO, or a lifted diesel pickup. It fits 99% of them around here to a T. What size and offsetare your Enkeis Albie?

And yet, lifted Jeep owners are the coolest on the planet.

WOW. I own an EVO X, a dodge ram 3500 cummins diesel, and a mini roadster. I must be the biggest **** in the world. But owning some of the finest vehicles in the world is worth the price of admission.
I got sick of the the top if the A-Pillar cover popping out because the tabs were broken. I had to replace them when I got my windshield replaced, and it broke again. Luckily, I kept the old ones, so I slipped a piece of plastic in where the tabs are, glued it in, and bolted it back in.
