Look what i have just gone and Done

I invested in a pretty nice pair of BRAND NEW rims, only been on the market for a week.

HR Racing 253S 17x7 with Nankang Ultra Sport NS-II 205/40R17 rubber bands





All i need to do now is Lower it, because of it's 4x4 action.

Those are some very nice rims. a fine selection. if you dont mind, how much?

as well as lowering, some caliper painting action wouldn't go astray :wink:
