I pick black wheels with the extended lugs because my car is a purple blue and I think it would be too much. If it were white or black I would be allll over that. But yeah Brian.... those wheels were beautiful, I hate to say it but those were the best wheels i've had so far lmao.

Why do you feel bad? And if you get them pull the tires off and have me paint the rims. Or get them without tires preferably.

They are coming without tires and they are stripped to the bare metal already, think the guy was going to paint them. Because I feel bad when someone else is doing the work! You did paint the last ones so well tho.

Buy me some taco bell or help me with deb and it's all good. I never mind helping people out.


EDIT: sorry for all the unnecessary quoting guys.

No CEL lights. I'm about 99% sure it's the timing. It's gotta be only off by a tooth or so, because it doesn't start too terribly hard, and it doesn't backfire or pop while running..just doesn't run good. All vac lines are plugged in, and re-flashing my ECU didn't help.

When we did Tashas swap it ran awful like timing was screwed up or had a massive vac leak and it turned out that the coulpack was bad. Just remember to check all the small stuff you can before testing into it
