What kind of wheels do you have now?

Steeda97 has chrome 03 cobras and they're pretty boring looking. Hahaha

I always ask myself two simple questions...

1) Do I want them?
2) Is the price good enough/worth it?


And knock him down. I bed you can easliy get hime to take $50 off if you want them.

Well you gotta add the cost of 2 tires mounted and balanced to the $500. Plus the coast of powder coating them black (unless of course you are doing that on your own). Depends on the tires you get, but you may just be better off getting a new set of Black cobras with new tires from AM. Wouldn't be paying too much more...
