Thanks everyone for the props!!

Well a sale is pending on my wheels. I have an opportunity to be partially sponsored for some Decenio wheels from DriverzInc and want to try something new out.

I've been totally pleased and happy with the Rushforths. Heck I took these baby's out on the autox at the Good Guys show and they did awesome.

If I had enough $$$$'s I'd keep both sets of wheels and just switch back and forth, but that wouldn't go too well with the Mrs.

Rule #1:Never tell them what things cost.
Rule #2:Every car must have at least 3 sets of wheels...right Henson?:thumbsup:

Can't believe you are selling them. You car was the reason I put black centered Super Spokes on mine. (Thanks to Jon also--Jon, still need to get the key lock for the mercedes wheels back from you--hope you still have it)
Please post pics of the new wheels asap---or have Jon do it--really want to see what the car looks like with the new shoes.

Doug,
Yup, your wheel lock resides in the top drawer of my tool box here at the shop until we cross paths again. How are the tires doing on your Mercedes?
I called the next day and asked if you wanted me to ship it to you... still can. If so, give me a call.

Like you Doug, I think Johnny was struck by the New Gen designs pretty hard after seeing them in person, and the Decenio from the moment he saw it, and since we sponsored his car with the Accuair controller too, and we're going to be tearing into it again, he couldn't resist the opportunity to change up the look again.

99.9% of the time I follow Rule #1, as for Rule #2 even it wasn't for the wife, the wallet would be there to remind otherwise too!! :lol:
