    ok so here is what happened, Last year I went on a trip to Florida we were going to go to miami, but just as we left atlanta and got on interstate 75 we hit a brick or a rock the size of a brick and ended up getting a flat tire.
    I ended up warping my rim and had to buy the fastest rim i could get shipped to me from goodyear tire center. We ended up making it to FL and had an awesome time down at miami.
    This was the rim i bought

    Well in May i had another accident, went off the road and hit a curb. I promise no drinking was involved just a really long ass night, i was sleep deprived and thought i could drive to class. This time i ended up warping my two right side rims.
    I ended up liking the rim i bought in GA, so i called them up, the guy actually remembered us, and i got a pretty good deal for 3 more rims and tires.

    Poor lancer had to sit like this for a week

    Good lookin' Lancer! Its clean, and not too much done to it! I was actually thinking of mentioning lowering it before I read your future plans :lol: I should look killer once you lower it :)

    PS: You should look into debadging the DICK SMITH off of it haha
