planetrj those new rims look awesome! A great deal! Those old caps aren’t on correctly, but it’s much better with the new set!

CC we’ll need pictures! Lotsa pictures!

Today it’s raining, enough to keep everyone inside their houses, the last few days we had every kid in the neighborhood riding their bikes or skateboard up and down our driveway, people walking their dogs, and standing, chatting at the end of our driveway.
I miss the remote start in Oldblue, that used to get them moving!!
So, today, I’m taking inventory for several little projects, new H11 LED fog light bulbs.
New swaybar bushings.

Today I'm doing some destruction work with my son, so Toughie is loaded with the tools required for the job.

Well with all of the rain and flooding we have had, I can't get much yard work done. But I have alot of time to detail on
the HHR,
Waxed it this morning with Black Wax including door jams and under the hood. Yesterday I took all of the rear covers off from the spare tire and aired it up to 60 lbs. it had 40 lbs. And put the battery tender on till this morning.
Sitting on my stool and sipping a cool refreshment , I picture a set of wheels like PittKrew's in my mind...I really like those wheels! I should wait until all of this crazieness is over. ...John

Thank you, and yes! I agree 100%. I was tired of seeing that the owner must've put on Cobalt Caps or something, because the fake lugnuts were offset to make the valve cover hide behind the spoke! Was 100% necessary to get this all the way around. I considered that in the original negotiation of the sale.
I call it "Haggling Bohemian Style" lol

I like those as well. But pondering to stay w/17's or bump to 18's. Which I know the ride will suffer a bit on 18. Just thinking out loud at this point.

The 18’s in mine ride very nice and quiet, I set them at 32 psi the alignment did not change , just that TPMS problem yesterday.

Today we’ll be sitting the children until noon while their parents attend meetings, both are first responders.
