It only cost me 25 per rim. I wouldn't rattle can it unless you want that stuff to peal. a couple of rock chips would do the trick. only bad partis you have to unmount and remount you tires. no big deal 00 gts injen cai, mwr valve springs, fidanza flywheel ACT xtreme clutch, blitz spark plugs, matrix exhaust, trd shifter, powder coated rims new engine Courtesy of goodwill warranty
