The wheels were redrilled to 5x114.3 so I didn't have to run any adapters.

Purchased a Wald executive kit last month and finally got to put it on yesterday! I really like this kit because it's very subtle and keeps the car looking very classic/OG. Nothing too crazy/dramatic here, which is what I'm really going for.

All pieces are mounted on besides the rear lip in this photo.

Damn, this is sweet looking. Definately gives me ideas for mine. I kinda like the BMW wheels. What was the total cost of wheels plus having them redrilled?
