Are you swapping to 5-lug, or did you already do that? Can’t remember and I don’t see it in your mod list.
Those look pretty nice, and you can always paint them if you want. Might be a nice set of wheels to finally retire the stockies with, until you pick up what you really want.
Are those the 17’s or 18’s?

i have the 5lug swap parts. these wheels are only 17s. I already need tires for my 4lug wheels so made more sense to just buy some cheap 5lug wheels sense I dont have money for really nice ones yet. I still gotta buy new rear hubs and a camber kit and new front rotors

Jonathan, looking good, Sir.
Nice job.
Found I am having the same issue with the wife's rear brakees after doing some work, pedal is a bit mushy and have to pump the brakes a second time to feel them really kick in. Thinking there is some air trapped in the lines somewhere.

Having the hardest time with what? Did you figure out what wasn't working with the brakes?
You'll get use to the firm pedal feel, and come to love it. Awesome that you're going straight to the 18" HFP's, the car is going to look soo good. What tires you getting?

She's sitting pretty on the HFP'S. Your photos are hella tight BTW.
