i just noticed in one of your pics that you have those snap rings around some of your wheel studs. You will want to pull those off with pliers before youmount the wheels or you can have vibration issues from teh wheels not seating. Learned that the hard way with my 05. teh rings are there for assembly opnly at teh factory and are not needed. I removed them from my 05 with needle nose pliers.

wheels on, everyone raving about them, i just need to figure out the revs/miles number in my SCT 3 hand held tuner...anyone got a number to use to get my speedo calibrated, i was 10 mph off i put a number of 780 revs now, and about 4 to 5 off now? truthfully he ride to me is smoother, but the toyo tires are a little noisy, nice agressive tread is why
