hey all, what's up?

hey...

what's up? my name is emily. im probably the only one on this webpage w/o power locks but atleast i got my vibe brand spanking new for under 10K *wow*

I am without power locks... by my choice to. Welcome Emily, you seem to have gotten a really base Vibe for 10k? Sweet deal...

I don't have power locks or windows, welcome to the club.

... yea, well daddy bought it so hell, i'll take it! *lol* i'm ordering some 17's for it, gunmetal to match the shadow paint, and i guess i'm gonna drop it a couple inchs, tint it. i was thinking about some black tribal side graphics, but i dont want to look like a ricer, does anyone know a good webpage where i could find something decent and not tacky?

hey emily, welcome aboard!many members opted not to get power locks, so fear not, you aren't alone!if you're interseted in meeting a group of the genvibe family, consider taking your first roadtrip to michigan in june!more info here: http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=8289

yea, my g'pa worked for GM so i got a huuuge discount *sweet*

that would be sweet. i go to a lot of car meet ups actually. my bf and his friends all mod saturns so just about everyweekend i end up hanging out at an auto zone or drag strip or something

A sweet set of rims like mine would look tough as hell on your shadow Vibe (see sig for pic) Gunmetal rims, black windows and blue lights would be a sweet combo on your Vibe.

Welcome to GenVibe! Glad to see another member from Dayton, Ohio! Just curious how did you hear about GenVibe?

i was thinking red as my accent color actually, maybe some underbodies or something. i dont know yet, i just got back from basic training a couple months ago and havent gotten anything done to it yet, just got the wheels on the way

Hi Emily,Welcome to Genvibe, and the Vibe in general!

i searched for vibe chats on google .. i think. i cant remember *lol* i just knew it existed i guess

or on the rims?

Those rims are almost the same as my 17" Ikons. Infact Ikon makes a rim that looks just like that but I didn't get that kind. Mine are very simular with just fewer spokes and look incredible on the Vibe.

sweet should look good on mine too then *hehe*

It would only seem likely that they would. How much USD did yours cost?

usd??

i'm wee taw did. i'm sure you mean money *lol* about 9,900 and some change. barely under 10k

Anyway, this is a similar wheel - same one Mavrik has, on AtWork's shadow vibe. Should give you a good idea how yours will loook. http://www.ragingfish.com/genv...1.htm

i like that, that's a good looking tire too

*(removed)* ok. i'll try to be more 'universal' then, 'eh? but i've always wondered ... if americans call their geese 'geese' and canadian geese 'canadian geese', what do canadians call canadian geese? just 'geese'? and what do they call geese from america?

And another holla out to all the canadians out there! As well as the americans who fall for our beautiful women.And yeah USD= US dollar. CAD= Canadian dollar.Atwork's rims are same as mine, though she has had them longer then me. And they look good on her car from better angles other then the one you showed Mike. But still sweet.And I was asking how much in USD (US dollar) you paid for the rims. What size tire you going to run?

They represent how we are... hate our winters and fly south...And at least our money doesn't look fake!

17" and 750 USD

here's another shot of those wheels on atwork's car: http://nicksimkins.com/vibe/tri-state/DSCF0078.htm

nice i cant wait to get mine *heh*

$750 for your rims? not to bad. I paid $814 CAD for mine. Another $600 for tires mounted and balanced.Atwork's car is so tough looking. Can't wait to get my rims on my car and then I can frighten people...

actually it's $750 for rims, tires, mounting and balancing and shipping...

That's a GREAT deal! Ones I wanted would've been over $2000 with tires.

So about a $1000 canadian and I paid about $1400. Not a bad deal then. Better get wheel locks though for them or you'll find them on someone else's ride lol.

$750 for wheels/tires is a GREAT deal. 17" falkens would have been about that price, but I wanted 18"'s, so I paid $1,050 USD w/ tires mounted/balanced/shipped

i went to wheelmax.com, they've got a lot of great package deals there. and that's not taxed either... i have a buddy who has a membership who could get it for 710 USD, but then he'd have to get tax on it, so it would actually end up costing more *lol*

Hi Vibe Welcome to GenVibe. Good fun people here. btw, on the wheels
