new rims for my ride

got a pair of this baby in blumentritt street in manila just the other day. it's a bit dirty but i know it's a nice find. just don't know from which car it came from. but judging from it, i bet it'll look good in my 86 lancer, just a little cleaning up will do the trick. i got it for 540 pesos pair, which i think is a good buy considering its condition. and, i would always opt for steel rims rather than mag alloys. gotta love those ol' school babies.

The composition that emerged at medium distance fragments into meaningless marks up close. Neither view is "wrong". They're both accurate descriptions of what's observable at that scale. This is what scale means in contextual stratification: the resolution of observation, th...
