Well i played with mine and heres what i think is th eway to go... corret me if im wrong or if you figure a better way once you get yours...



1. Remove the front rims from the knuckles ( plenty of threads on this)



2. The rim comes in 2 parts. Place the pin thru the one and into the knuckle and drive it back in for a snug fit.

3. the small metallic circle peice i believe is for a "disc rotor/pad effect". Place the part on the rim... the hole on the dis lines up with the rim ( glue it on) i think the extra tab should be folded up to give the appearance of a caliper ( i could not get mine to fit any other way and thought it looked good that way)

4. Glue the secnd part of the rim on.

5. place the tire on the rim.

6. glue the etched piece on.

DONE!!!

Any one gotta better way? or one for the rear? Heres pics in order of assembly

I've ditched work for less. I got a pos job that I really don't give two shits about. Work is more fun when you don't give a shit.
What will really suck is if them rims don't come tomorrow and I gotta wait till monday or god forbid TUESDAY :sad:
