    I had to do it!! This car was just screaming for wheels! Damn the Mileage!! I'm down about 4-5 MPG. oh well.

    XXR 18" 006 42 backspace

    I will be lowering it soon and adding some spacers to the rear wheels, just to pull them out a bit.

    Shifter!

    Nice wheels! The black and chrome looks good on the Winter Gray.

    Nice shifter!

    Now THIS is what I'm talking about! I love it!

    It definitely needs to be lowered though. Looks awkward sitting so high with those rims. Great job!

    It does have normal threads. I really can't remember the pitch. I did a couple other ones just to see how they'd look.

    anyone want the other round ones? I think I'm going to stick with the tall one.

    Nice sub enclosures!

    And two w7s...notice any difference with the Prius powering those subs? I ran w6s in my mustang before and then switched to diamond audio...both subs took a lot from my battery and alternator


    iPhone ?

    looks like there is a lot of interest in these shifters. whoa. didn't expect that!

    I'm using the tall one and Danny has dibbs on one of the other ones. So when I know which one I have left I'll let you know.
