Sorry about the size and quality all i had was my phone at the time..

I decided to go with gunmetal.. I know thats not what it looks like in the pictures but in real life they are a lot darker..

The flakes aren't that obvious in real life. I don't know how to show you guys through pictures.

try to snap some pics in the sun without flash. That should show TRUE finish on rims.

Nice looking so far.

Uhh idk about that. Lol I was thinking about letting them go. My brother will be driving soon and I think my max will be his. So I don't wanna keep putting stuff in/on it anymore.
