I have some nice C-West lugs I want to put on but need a 1/2"x19mm Long socket to fit over them, don't think I could pull off the blue Works lugs without the Works wheels to go with them, and then again I do need one more set of wheels.

as far as the billet front plate insert....well...

not a chance where I live atleast

sperry · 2004-05-11, 03:50 PM

Mike, you get everything aligned and your endlinks tightened?

MikeSTI · 2004-05-12, 01:16 PM

the end links are tight but still need an alignment, wanted to get the ride height adjusted before that

qksubi · 2004-05-12, 08:42 PM

I have work lugs and 5zigen wheels I have the blue work decals for your rims

If you go pick it up you have to pay Cal tax IIRC. So you are probably screwed either way.

You have to pay it regardless I believe.

qksubi · 2004-05-13, 03:29 PM

No thats the cost to trailer the car it has been payed for with a nevada address by law if you are a nevada resident you pay nevada tax

I bought a pos dodge the same way but they didnt charge me for trailering it here. I can not drive the unless I go to dmv and a cumuter pass or a temp reg. to get to nevada. I think my dad is going to trailer it for me

Just drive it back. If you don't speed nobody will bother you. Bring your purchase contract with you and they won't bother you even if you do get pulled over.

doubleurx · 2004-05-14, 10:53 AM

Nice work, I have the same wheels in bronze on my 03. I'm running 235/40/17 with no rubbing. I wish I went with 245/40's.
