it may get dropped... prob. not though. i'm pretty content with how it sits right now. i'm not all about being pan scraping low


it's amazing how a simple stock oem wheel can look when it's on a different car. on mk4's they look - ehhh. but you throw the same ones on a mk3 and it's a world of difference.

they used to be longhair's brian - and theres a bit of a story behind them and how i ended up with them





[long sotry] they came unofficially up for sale one day when i was talking with justin - and i really liked them - i told rachel about them and got the from her. but she eventually gave in, and said to go check them out and see what i think - and find out what he wanted for them. so i go, check them out and they're sweet. he knows where every mark on them ever came from, but all in all, i dont think i could have seen a better set of used wheels. so i go home... tell her about them and that is that. it goes a week or so, i'm ready to get them and something came up that took higher priority (i think it was heat for the house) anyways - it got put on hold.

i got up one morning to come to work - find a note saying "take my car and put gas in it, i took the jetta" - ok no biggie - there is an issue with the wagon, and putting gas in is a royal PITA (story for another day) so i go about my way.

i meet a bunch of cepa guys for lunch, even longhair and his brother were there. cool. everyone is making fun of me for having to take the passat and put gas in it. but it happens, i dont care.

i go thru the rest of the day, and ended up going out to gilligans after work, and dont get home till like 9 or so. round the corner to the driveway and i was like WTF?!?!? there sits the jetta with the bbs on it.

here - when she told me to go check them out - she had already talked to justin about buying them, he just wanted me to look at them, and point out any issues i may have (which i didnt) to make 100% sure i wanted them.

the day i had to "put gas in the passat" - she had it set up with justin to stop over after she got off work for him to even install them on the jetta - and the SOB never said a word to me, or even made me think twice. i had no idea that rachel and justin were scheming behind my back the whole time.

so that was my b-day present for this year - not bad, not bad at all [/end long wheel story]
