    those look delicious

    and good fucking job on keeping the chrome window trim... that's something a lot of people can't seem to understand around here!!!

    chrome kidneys might do you some good too, but it looks good the way it is too

      thanks man! I managed to get a set of brand new Falken Ziex's mounted on them for 130 bucks! It desperately needs to be about 1.5 inches lower though. I was impressed how flush they are with the fender line for being so cheap

        Yeah you definitely need a drop, but I can already imagine how they'll look when you get that taken care of. What are you planning to drop on?

        If I can manage to sell my TRM C1's I'm definitely picking up a set of these.

          I'm running bottom cut chopped springs with bilstein sports haha

          and i have another set of chrome kidneys that i switch out. This week's color is black. These wheels are great for the price. Tons of attention and rubber neckers so far.

                    do they need spacers or are they direct fitment?

                          20 offset is good, but some 15mm spacers in the front and 10 in the rear will really make em pop. nice whip.

                            from a mexican who most likely stole them.

                            and the fronts are perfect. the rears could use a 5mm spacer but they are damn close to being perfectly flush. the 205/45's are stretched perfectly for my taste.

                              These are the first xxr wheels that I actually kinda like. They look good on your car.
