Steve's 996 - They are 18's. I am not 100% on condition on them and won't know until i get the car...The inspection pointed out a scratch on the driver side wheel lip edge....looks like the tire installer may have scratched it...doesn't look like curb damage. Anyway, I will definitely shoot you a PM once I have the car in hand...

nope...still waiting on a driver to claim her....apparently the route from NC to MI is not all that popular. The service said it could be up to a week before a trucker will snag it....It's been 4 days so far.... fingers crossed it wil happen soon.

finally...

Got confirmation that car will be picked up. Just waiting on a call from the driver to confirm a delivery date.... Once the car shows up I'll be sure to take pics and pm folks on wheels.
