Cool Out with the OLD, In with the NEW (Wheel Update)

Hey guys whats up,

Just posting an update about my wheels.

I had these wheels that had stainless steel lips on them that kept making noise. You can view the old thread Click Here. Anyway I got rid of those after Giovanna attempted to fix them 4 times (they gave me 4 new sets, so basically I went through 16 rims...All made noise eventually) , to no avail.

Some pics of the old wheels.




Now I have these wheels and am the first one to have them in Cali (according to the manufacturer), just wanted to give a shot out to the shop that sold them to me. Pics are below.







I purchased them from Need4Speed in Glendale, CA. Super nice guys. I felt really bad for them since they sold me the Giovannas and made every attempt to fix them including unmounting, remounting and balancing the tires (for free) each time Giovanna said "bring them back". They really took care of me and made no excuses. Anyways thumbs up to them.

I know not everyone will like the wheels I have and thats fine I just wanted to give a thumbs up to the Shop who sold them to me.

God Bless,
BR34K3R

I like them better than the other set you had.

Thank you, I wax it every weekend with zymol wax and also wash it with zymol car wash
I bought it from another forum member(Danny, 2nd post above yours), who also did a great job of keeping it clean.

To answer your question: None of the photos have been altered in anyway.
The old set(all black) was taken with a Samsung Galaxy S3
The new set was taken with a Nexus 4
Both of which are phones.

God Bless
