I like bling. Chrome or polished.

Black would be my 2nd choice.

Could that be me....??



I love these new wheels, not that I didn't hesitate when selling my Evo's. The hyperblack just works well with pewter, and the nice thing is they don't look different when dirty.

I would have gone with CCW's but for the extra money I'm getting a four post lift. I really couldn't justify dropping the extra money on the CCW's, but they are gorgeous wheels and probably a little lighter than the Ruff's.

Hyperblack would look best at first but then you'll probably get over it and go back to chrome. Chrome is more timeless.

I was going back and forth with getting chrome, but I decided against it because I didn't want the weight penalty associated with chrome. The nice thing is I dropped almost 6lbs. per wheel compared to the hp evo's.

I'd really like to see the chrome 278s when you get them. Let me know and we can take some pictures of the two cars. I'm sure the guys over at Ruff would love to see them.
