This is only a first look (as I am out of town and my Dad sent me the pic after installing the new wheels), but here are Boo's new shoes.
Getting some center caps and painting the calipers is the next step.

Meg,
Very nice. We need to get the car lower now, and your all set.
Cool dad to do that for ya. Maybe you could get him to wash the car for you? Weather looks OK tomorrow to get the hose out ...
Are these the Subzeros? (haven't been following the thread so I don't know what you ended up with) If so then they have a hubcentric spacer so their centers won't fit I don't think. Too bad because they are a good looking center. I prefer no centers myself...

^^ +1 looks good, meg.
i too have to agree with lowering it. but
if you use the car all year long, be warned that you may/maynot be able
to clear the car wash rails if you take her into auto washes. so might be
better to keep it stock height.

Meg-- Your wheels look great!
I have the same ones that I will be putting on tomorrow. The Ro_Ja LT5's don't have center caps though but I love the way they look without them anyway.

And the wheels are Ro-ja LT5's...couldn't get my hands on the subzeros in white, and paid the extra money to get the ro_ja's.
I have been thinking about lowering the car, but it is a daily driver. My boyfriend has a set of springs he took off his MINI, cause he couldn't deal with the daily drive. If he can't unload them before the summer, I might have him throw them on my car to see how it looks.
Thanks everyone for all the nice comments. I am so relieved my wheel escapades have ended.
