EvelinaDM101,

No, actually I never ended up getting Amanda's as we were not able to work out a deal due to some emergency financial setbacks. Therefore, they are still available. Get in touch with her and scoop them up; they really are nice wheels/tires she is selling. I think they would look choice on your car.

Thanks for the compliments on Buddy.

BTW: Depeche Mode rocks!! I have been enjoying all their music since I began listening to them in junior high!! ('86)

Nice. Get some VW logo caps for those wheels and a stubby antenna to go with those new tips.
