Thanks Ken..
Just a minor set back. I'm starting my own business. Hopefully, if all goes well, it'll work out.

Thanks Tony. Glad you'll like them better. They'll be chrome outers, and chrome center caps, with black centers. Should look pretty cool for awhile.

PSJ, they would look better if they were all 19s, I think the 19s have a deeper lip than the 18s. But hell, anything is better than stock wheels.

Thanks Steve. These are them:


Going to repaint, or powder the centers again so they are more a gloss black or satin, instead of the flat black they are now. Should look good. And will hide the fact I don't have big disc brakes yet.

Go with something like a metallic charcoal gray on those centers, they look a little nicer when you can see the holes, and that gray would go well with your blue car.
