          NICE ix! The wheels look good. They would look better with a drop.

                    That looks pretty clean. With a drop and lower profile it would look better.

                      the wheels work. the part that confuses me is the front bumper surround. the insides are black the outsides are body color. painting them all body color may work out better- but if you like them like that, cool.

                      car looks super clean though, good work.

                        they do look quite nice.
                        i would say it needs a low job, but my car is moster trucking too...so...

                        good work though.

                          They are Borbet LS wheels.The stock basket weaves were twisted, so they couldn't be refurbished. I put 58 mm roundels over the Borbet centercaps.

                          I left the center part black because I think it blends better with the grill and bumper that way. Here are some before and after shots:

                          I drive in deep snow, so lowering is not an option.
