[dj_chinaman2097]

Looks nice. Do you have orange calipers too?

[3GFX]

lol, tooooo soon. But it looks good. :)

[eqlso]

Oh boo, I was going to do the exact same thing! Did you paint these yourself?

[mEtH]

Looks nice! I still think its a little early, hope the salt don't damage the nice work. They have a nice hint of colour in them, dont seem to be an ordinary grey.

[p-o-g-i]

Get Down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[M3!]

You paint those yourself?

[Walrus]

Duplicolor wheel paint - graphite. Did it myself. Painted the calipers with Tremclad gloss black, orange mazda stickers.

[sudz]

Stickers on the calipers? Won't those burn off? Looks awesome man! ... I wish i could switch to my summer rims.... I would, except this one little problem... I don't have any. :-(

[Cardinal Fang]

Looks good and I do understand you wanting to go to those rims sooner than you should have.

[el_gato]

did you also paint inside (behind the spokes)?

[Walrus]

I didn't bother painting the back side of the rims. If its noticeable, I might take them off and do that.

Your wheels turned out nice, perfect time nothing but + temps from here on in

[Skarbro]

Very nice. I would like to see how they look IRL.

[Myk]

They do look good, but its way too soon. Sooo many frigin pot holes and torn up roads and highways out there!!

+1. Spoken like a true vet.

Way too soon...temps aren't even consistently above 10C yet.

[Walrus]

The all season tires that I have right now will do just fine for these temperatures.

[Malcolm991]

Im begining to wonder if some people are even to afraid to drive in the rain because of fears of getting there wheels wet. There will always be pot holes and it's not like minus 20.

[Myk]

Not potholes, huge chunks of road missing. I was going down the 427 last week, and the whole way, there are massive craters.

I would never want to take the chance with non steelies.

[Walrus]

I have no trouble dodging the few potholes here in KW.

Bring your car to Toronto where we have roads the more resemble the face of the moon than a flat surface.

I drive the roads in the GTA everyday and I dont see those roads your talking about.

[RedRaptor]

Are you kidding?

[Cardinal Fang]

I drive the roads in the GTA everyday and I dont see those roads your talking about.

Where do I start:

Steeles between Bathurst and Dufferin
Steels at Yonge Street
Yonge Street from Steeles down to Finch
Hwy 401 Collectors at Yonge
Hwy 401 from Keele to the "basket weeve."
Bathurst from Sheppard down to St. Clair.
Sheppard from Bathurst to Bayview.
Dufferin from Wilson south (Just blow the farker up and start over)
Wilson from Dufferin to Keele
ANY ROADS AROUND THE CHESSWOOD ARENA.
Dixie Road and Airport Rd. At one point these roads were so bad I thought Pearson was landing planes here.

And these are just the roads of the top of my head I take into and around work. I could do 3 times as much on others.

looks good; though i do agree it's a bit early, i put mine on too. along hwy 7 there's a lot of craters and chunks of road surface missing..i just dodge them or slow down to dodge them ;)

[Malcolm991]

You guys are too sensitive, it dont matter what time of year it is. There will always be pot holes
