Awesome! Very original and well done, I really appreciate the time/effort/cash that went into this but I actually liked how they looked without the gold flake much better. What size are they and what tire size will you be running? Curious to see to what extent the stance is slammed/strecthed or if it will be more of a "battle stance" with meaty tires which would be SICKK!!!!

The tires will be the same size as I had previously unfortunately cannot go any bigger without adjusting the suspension. 265/35 18, decided on some star specs even though they won't last long.

The gold flake is actually pretty subtle and until you are about 2-4 feet from the wheels you don't even see it, that being said I love seeing it .

Here is a picture of the stance of the car.



Tires will be going on Friday and I will post pictures of the final result this upcoming weekend .

Finally mounted today! Ran over to my goto photo location do just do a couple quick shots before it got dark. Here they are! The wheels after clear coat have a slight olive green color to them which I hope comes through in these photos, the color is unbelievably different and I am in love with it .






Tomorrow I will try to get some shots of them in the sun with my 50mm or wide angle to show some sparklies.

Hate to be the tough critic here, but the vinyls look a bit off, meaning they don't look authentic. The result is that the entire rim looks like a knock-off even though I know you put a lot of time, effort and money into the project. I honestly liked the un-clear coated look much better than the final result. But its just my opinion that doesn't count because you love the look and that's all that matters.

No worries, I don't expect everyone to love them. What about the vinyl looks off to you out of curiousity? I did make them myself so they arent oem. I loved the matte finish dark gray as well but unfortunately they would not have withstood brake dust with the texture that was on them without some sort of protectant. I ran with matte wheels for 4 years on the X so I wanted to change it up otherwise I could have gone with matte clear but ya, they came out better than I hoped so I am very happy with them.

I don't have any pics that truly show what they look like quite yet but that will be a project for tomorrow.
