I have always liked CCW classics with flat black centers and polished lips. I think Eric's car would look hot with black faces. Would look good on white too.

a drill and a polishing ball are going to be your best friend! dont waste your time doing it by hand, the high speed drill and polishing ball will take half the time and give better results.

Those are ones are hot! I have a buddy who has the light blue version of those on his new STI. They def look good! Yours looks good w/ the Varrstoens, but I like those SBC RPF's you had too...I think I just like the SBC finish. I have always wanted some SBC RP-O3's in an 18x10 +22.

Mounted 255/40/18 on my 18x9 +25 SVN's a few days ago....trimmed out some of the front fender liner facing the back of the wheel...is that all that is needed to stop the rubbing at 3/4 lock? Meaning, would removing all of the fender liner facing the rear of the tire stop all of the rubbing at 3/4 turn of the wheel? Front o the wheel has a ton of clearance, but the back not so much.

Thanks!

yes the wheels/tires are on the wrong side, but it works for test fitting :P
