    If you want to sell the factory wheels and tires, there might be people interested in buying them individually to use as spares. With the size difference would you be able to use one as a very temporary spare?

    I'll be keeping the factory wheels and tires. Just in case the aftermarket is not MPG friendly they will be put back back on until the next car show. The spare will still work, it's a plus conversion (Spare has more tire wall then the wheel) it all equals out ;)

    Do the wheel bolts serve a purpose or is it mainly cosmetics?

    Edit: Nevermind! Just re-read and saw that they were 3-piece!

    Wheel bolts keep your wheels from falling off the car when you're driving.;) :D

    Nice….. That's my biggest beef with the PIP are the stock wheels… also not a fan of the silver trim pieces on the exterior…. Yours looks nice… I too have Blizzard Pearl… (y)
