Picked up some new rims
I picked these up today, 4 American Racing Casino 17s for $160, they were on an Olds Aurora. They are a bit wider than my current wheels which I was trying to get.
Here's some pics: I sanded down the chrome lip because it was peeling, I'll be painting it ruby red. First pic is a before and after:

Painted the lip, the paint chipped off when I was removing the tape on one of them so I had to strip it down and prime, paint and clear again, but it was worth it.
Now I just need some lugs like this:

I just painted the lip, not the back. Unfortunately I'll have to wait until April before I put these on.
