thanks for all the compliments, the rim color is actually called anthracite which looks gunmetal but depending on how the light hits the rims they can actually look almost black.. i actually picked up the rims for $650 shipped from a pretty good company, i received them a day after my order went through

im dropped right now on Sprint's, but the thing that you dont see are the stage 1&2 subframe connectors that are sitting about an inch lower than the car is and i already have a problem with scraping those even here on texas roads which arent that bad

I've had those rims for almost 8 months now...they are beautiful arent they? you need to get the center caps to cover up the center. It took me forever to find them. When I get home to my home PC i will find the link the wheel place i got mine.

but check out mine on my 5th gen

www.cardomain.com/id/edgex

the pics should be on page 2 and 3

You're in desperate need of a drop EdgeX. With those wheels it almost looks like you raised the car

Yea I know I need the drop. But when I bought my rims they were brand new just introduced and i bought them with tires, and it kinda sucked my money. I've been saving for some adjustable coilovers (so I can raise it back up in the winter when the stock wheels are on) and a new brake system. I'm almost there

Slammed, My home computer was acting funky last night so I couldn't get the link. However since there is no one at work today (gotta love christmas time right?) I can spend some time lookin for it for you. The plus side? once those bastids are in, they can't come off unless you take the entire wheel off so you don't have to worry bout someone stealing them

I'll PM you if I find the link while at work.

I've always liked those rims.... looks good on EdgeX's car too (although he does need to drop it).... ya might do well to get some bigger brakes in there... bigger rims with a spoke pattern that makes the calipers and rotors more visible kinda look weird without at least some bigger rotors.

Stephen is excellent at what he does, and once again i must thank him for installing the new pipes... they definately made a difference in the way the car feels and performs
