    4 run, 2 don't
    No experience with what you're asking or what you're looking at but I'll be the first to say; stay away from cheap wheels.

    I've seen first hand those cheap ass Rota's bust on someone during my 'street racing' days.

    Everyone met up at Foods Co parking lot, and it was just around the corner from a long straight away you'd drag race on. There were 1 or 2 cars that had their Rota's break on them...definitely not worth the risk.

    Yeah I’m still young (22) and usually don’t mess with them a lot. Been drinking water, Gatorade, and sweet tea with this heat.

    I would do some 16s or something like that since those tires are usually better on price

    do preventative maintenance and an alignment before buying more tires to wear out

    Thing is the price and vendor, it's very cheap the same wheel everywhere else is $130 but I didn't see it in chrome anywhere else maybe they're just trying to clearence them off as chrome is gross

    @Running Board Man also what @Wulf said about going through the suspension and an alignment for down the road. Protect your investment

    gotdamn I thought I needed a lot of caffeine in the AM lol

    Those 250mg cans are enough for me, though I've only been getting the Yerba mate energy drinks lately because they're "healthier". Even having the sugar free Rockstars a few mornings a week was starting to make my stomach feel like crap afterward

    usually hit up the bakery at the grocery store on the way to work every AM and grab one of these for a couple bucks, 160mg caffeine no sugar/carbs etc. Basically flavored high caffeine tea, tastes good and I am normally not one to drink tea (except iced tea...no sugar just lemon)
