Yeah they are on the expensive side. I really liked them though and the other ones that were available at the time were all ugly as heck.

Oh, you should wait until you put the new rims on before you get the alignment though. This is becuase when you change the wheels over you'll probably mess the alignment in doing so.

Please explain, I'd LOVE to hear how this works....

Well, I have coilovers and I guess I failed to mention that whenever I switch wheels I also adjust the height of the perches. The changing of the perches changes my alignment. SORRY that I didn't clarify. If you have stock suspension, it shouldn't matter. I assumed that he had lowering spring being that most people do now-a-days. That's for the sarcasm!

Ok. Even if you don't have stock suspension, changing your WHEELS doesn't change your alignment. But I agree, if you raise or lower the car significantly it should be re-aligned.
