    quick update. brought the wheels to get refinished and painted on tuesday, hoping to get them back this weekend. also, ive been looking for a specific tire, faulken 512's. ive looked on many of the popular tire websites, 1010tire, discounttiredirect and so on but was not able to find a set. im looking for 205/45's. anyone know where i could get a set?

    Honestly, all the chrome stuff should have just been scotch padded so they appear to be brushed aluminum before clearing over it. That would have been rather tasteful.

    And it's not FAULKEN, it is Falken Tire and they do not make a 205/45R18. They replaced the 512 with the 912.

    That's unfortunate if it's true because the 912s don't stretch the same as the 512s. Personally I think they have a "boxy" look to them.

    The Falken website still shows the 512s, but maybe they haven't updated it yet.

    I couldn't stop laughing at the amount of chrome you had to strip off this ride to get it street worthy.
