    Maine JDM import and registration issues.

    The requirements for registering foreign-market imports ("gray market" cars) varies from state to state, and each state has the prerogative to amend their policies at their own discretion at any time, unfortunately. The fact that a vehicle was imported legally into the USA, and meets or is...

    SOLD Saudi Split ring rims/wheels. Set of 5 with tires.

    Older places that deal with tires for big rigs (semi's). That's where I got my wheels like this mounted with tires when I needed that. No problem at all.
