Hi y'all!
So, after some Craigslist scrounging, I was able to find a killer set of forged wheels with almost new tires for my new Vibe.....and here she is!

The wheels are WORK Emotion CR's, 17x7.5, wearing 225/45/17 rubber. The tires are cheapies, but I'll run them for a year or so while I get my suspension where I want it. I picked up the set for $800, so I'm feeling pretty good about that. The rims are about 8-10 years old, and they do have some nicks and chips, but very little rash.
The main thing is, they're light. Really light. Like I laughed when I picked one up it was so light. Really looking forward to doing the brakes now though; the calipers look horrible under these wheels! Here's a shot where its a bit more clear.

I'm doing a nice little trip back to my homeland of Door County, WI this weekend; I'll be sure to post some beauty shots of the car. Have a happy and safe Memorial Day, everyone!
