those are my winter wheels... not for sale... they would look sick on your car though! check nasioc.com for people who are selling them. they are going for about $1,000 w/o tires

I agree... I ordered a CF front lip last week to fix just that... it is a group buy though, so I wont have it on until late May. With this lip, it'll balance out.

why the downgrade to a cast rim? shoulda got some forged work emotions. that ravspec cf limited is gonna look hot though

figured the downgrade would be OK since i'll be just using them in the winter.

I didn't want to blow the dough for the Works... it was tempting though. I'd rather toss the money in the motor.

the rear JDM lip comes this week too! It came last week (after 3 months of waiting) and it was aspen white!

Gruppe-S has been cool about it though and sent the replacement right away.

My kinda thinkin. :thumbup:

Hell yea! :devil:

tell you the truth, I ordered the replicas too... since the replica rear is really good.

it got to a point where I asked them nicely to upgrade me for free because I was waiting so long... they agreed, so then they said it'd be an extra 3 weeks to get the container in from Japan... then that got delayed!

I ordered it Dec 22... go figure!

i'll still order from Gruppe-s though

You know, I don't understand how gruppe-s keeps customers. All three times I have dealt with them, they have given me either barly adequate, or downright poor service.

Things like, when I call, tell them I need my up/down pipe combo shipped two day due to needing to put it on right away, and they assure me it has everything I need, only to have it show up with no gaskets because they 'ran out', and they forgot to ship my CEL fix that was supposed to be included. The next time, I post and PM that I want to buy something that they list in post of used items. Get a reply back saying 'ok, its all cool', then, a week later, they have amneisia, stop returning my emails, and when I call say 'uhh, its sold, sorry'. Now this nonsense with you Chris.

If I did this crap with my customers, they would have my head...why do we stand for it? Not only do we stand for it, we praise them for treating us like crap!

Yea, they came in handy for the winter... and now with these nice temps, the potenzas pick up and throw rocks all the time... so i'm sure they'll come in handy for the summer.
