New wheels... what do you guys think?
So I got tired of having to touch up my spray-painted Rota GT3's every couple weeks or so. I still have no clue why the previous owner would spray paint a perfectly nice set of GT3's. Plus the tires were almost shot, and they had a decent amount of curb rash on every wheel (not from me!) I found some guy on Craig's List who traded me a set of MINT 99-00 Si wheels (barely noticeable amount of curb rash on one wheel), with fresh tires, straight-up for my wheels. I think I did pretty good. Enough talk, here's the pics...

Yup, I have pics. They didn't look bad from a distance, but when you got up close, they looked terrible. Every week or two the wheels would be covered with chips in the paint, especially where they used to have the polished lip, and the curb rash on 2 of the wheels were pretty bad, so much so on one that it bent the lip. Now if they would have been mint GT3's, unpainted, I never would have traded. I've just always loved how clean the SI wheels look. You guys think I did okay on the trade? Now I just have to get rid of my UGLY hood, I have no clue what I was thinking when I got it.
