Hey Hey, 1st post, I have an 07 Hemi. I love it so far. Finally getting somethings done to it.
So I have been searching for wheels for a while So hard to find the perfect wheel when you can't see it on and the color of the WK throws it off. So I jumped on the Rep's wagon in chrome. They look ok, I was actually a bit dissapointed :( with all the imperfections of them or maybe Im too picky. They are wrapped in Kuhmo's 275/45, they stick out more than I wanted. Over all its Ok, if I had to do it all over not sure if Id go the same route. WK looks ok w them. Sensors work perfect and for the price Im not going to complain. The ride does feel much better.
I love my running boards. I 1st ordered some Westins in Chrome, Im glad they are no longer made in chrome as I was able to find some actual WK ones, much cheaper and look better IMO. Im debating if I should paint or not paint them along with the Air dam.
My WK didnt come with Tow Hooks so I had to get them too. :D

I can post pics tomo' as long as I can figure it out if any1 want to see them. Sorry for a short post gone too long.

Hahaha, girlie, thats funny, why does it have to be like that?
Next is the Audio upgrade, I cant wait to do that, I would like to tint but I dont want the Headache of tickets. BF wants me to get HID's see if I can get him to pay for that ;) I doubt I would. Thinking about a drop not sure, would like to go off roadn a few times before.

if you lower it i would go with the srt8 eibachs.i have them and they ride great.if you go this route you need to either keep the stock struts and shocks or buy srt8 ones but the stocks ride great. also cut the front bumpstop in half.in the rear use only the cup and bumpstop not the big silver spacer provided in the kit.ALL OTHER STRUT MANUFACTURERS WILL RAISE THE FRONT 3/8" [BILSTIEN AND MONROE].IF ANYONE NEEDS HELP FEEL FREE TO PM ME

How much of a drop is the eibachs-1"? Any pic's? Is the drop is even all around? If I lower it, more than likely Ill change the Struts/shocks too depending on how many miles I have by then.
Its hard to stop once you start. Happened w my old Honda, My ex's Liberty,Camry, my old Tc, i did some exterior Mods and audio on them, now the Jeep and BF Escalade (I hope). If I only had more $$Mula$$.. I actually enjoy it when I can do more to a car than a guy, hahaha, then they act like they knew that. So funny. The male Ego No offense. BTW I do everything to my Cars my little girl Loves to help.
I was thinking of painting the side mirrors (cover), and calipers also .
Thanks guys I hope to keep posting

I actually thought the "girlie" was funny, didnt take it in a bad way at all. Woman so sensitive, hahaha thats good. Im only sensitive w my BF.

The RB have a top part (step part) that Ill remove to paint the rest of it, I think it would look great. With the air dam painted it would make it just right.

Sorry I dont know how to qoute each reply, I can give him a call and see if he has any left fot that price, it was 'for a limited time'- you know how that goes.

Thanks guys for the welcomes, I feel better than at home. hahhaha

Aims- Girlie Aims, hahahaha< how you like that? 08Hemi

Did they give you some sort of special offer? Do you have a contact over there for them? I'd like to see if I can get the boards for that price.
I just checked his site- still have them for 200.88, you have to jump on that. I really like them. they flow with it good, and my little one uses it w her little legs, not that im that much taller lol
