It’s been a while since I have done any modifications. I need to do a big shot out to ericastar76 for paying it forward with her old rims. She had bought new ones and had no storage space. She blew us away with a gift. We are so humbled just to call her our friend.
There was nothing wrong with the rims but we had wanted to change them up a little. We had the rims shaved and repainted with a smoke look. We think they came out great. However, this was all done months ago. We had to sit on them until we could afford all new tires. I had the stock SLR rims and with the new rims being 20’s all the way around, that meant new front tires. Now I didn’t need new tires but was too excited to put the new rims on.
Well this weekend we did just that. All new NITTO’s 255/35R/20 and of course 315/35R/20 on the back. I must say, I love the new look.
As far as the SLR rims and the good tires I still had on them........Well we too payed it forward to another slinger who wanted the SLR rims for he had the base model. What a great group of friends we have in this Slingshot community and a lot of them I call family now.
