Default Quick picture of new rims

My Godspeed wheels just got here. Their 20 inch machined/black rims. Its raining and my car is a little dirty but I was too excited to pass up the opportunity of putting up a picture. I'll get it all cleaned up and do a photo shoot tomorrow. Next mod will be lowering it.



By the way. My TPMS light on the instrument cluster didn't come on after I put the new wheels on. I figured it would since I didn't get a change to recalibrate the sensors yet. What could be wrong there?

Not sure about your sensor, but thanks to you, I think I just found my rims.

When I put my rims on it took a couple days for my TPMS light to go off. My local Ford dealer recalibrated it for free.

It's gonna look killer after you get it lowered! Those are the exact same rims I have ordered for my car but in the 18". Still waiting on mine tho... should be the end of this month (hopefully!) I love those wheels! Please post up some more pics when you get a chance!

This is a photochopped pic I did with the wheels on my car. My car is lowered on FRPP K springs with a 1.5 in drop all the way around.

Ok so heres a little update. I had about 30 minutes of sun today so I ran out and snapped a few pictures. Please ignore how dirty it is! I can't get it washed today because its just going to rain again in about an hour or so. Anyway, it will still be a little while before I can get it lowered. Hopefully in the next 2 months or so. I think I'm going to get the strano package with the koni shocks and steeda springs.

Awesome, it will look so much meaner lowered. Nice mirrors too.
