Really? Uhh well, there are worlds of differences and pros/cons, but for starters air=air and hydro=water.
OCklass Your car is amazing. Pictures dont do it justice man. I love the way your trunk setup is also (mind pming me a couple photos of it if you have any?) Also, as weird as it sounds, your taillights feel amazing to the touch. hahaha.
However, what works on a 202 wont necessarily work on a 124. You have a MUCH more spacious wheel well, as well as a more lip-friendly offset. No fender mods, correct?

And yes, no fender mods 
By the way, while you are correct about hydro meaning water, hydraulic means it runs on oil

Well yeah not exactly water, liquid. Hydraulic fluid to be exact. Sorry if I mixed you up there bertii.
Are your taillights stock OC or did you drench them in clear or something?
Oh and your trunk is going to be drastically different than it was at the TJ's meet?

Im guessing those are trade secrets. haha
I personally didnt see much room for improvement, but I hope do be proved wrong. So no shots of the current setup for me?

I'm taking a random stab that someone with a "VIP'd" 1992 Infiniti does not have a chauffeur

Hi.
Berti, have a look at Superstar Leon Hardiritt Orden in Japan. They have wheels quite similar to those shown in the beginning of your thread here.

I'd take that stab as well I personally wouldn't buy a set of rims that give people the connotation that I am the president, or perhaps a gangsta because I'm not. And I sure don't want people to think I have entered the ohh so prestigious "money making" status of the urban world, advertising that I'm making boatloads of money....that kind of attention usually ends up being trouble. You can go for the flash, or you can go for the class.

So clean man! Nice to know your car can hang with Ferraris no problem. Cant wait to see the update.
I hate to hijack the thread, and youre probly tired of this question, but how much did the overall setup put you back?
