They are race wheels, they were not designed for a center cap, notice how the edges of the wheel near the lugs/studs are rounded?

Yea, those are definitely not what I would put on a car without a center cap. It looks unfinished....like someone jacked your caps.

Those rims would set the car of nicely with a set of sticky rubber on it. Maybe some Hoosier road racing tires with the white letters out and the car lowered.

lol like I said before they are race wheels. They were not made for center caps, in fact Forgeline never made center caps for them, they are meant for extended studs/race open ended lug nuts.

The focus of the car is mainly a fun summer toy, using it for lapping days, hpde events and maybe autocross.

But anyway..

I'd like to get it tinted like my last car, but the cops up here pull people over all the time for tint, so still not sure about getting it.

The Dunlops on the car right now are pretty damn sticky with a 200 treadwear rating, I will probably buy some 275/40-17 Falken Azenis for next spring though.

Yeah I have pretty much everything for the suspension/a midsize cam sitting in my basement.

If you can't get center caps, at least paint the rusty centers showing through or paint the whole center where the center cap would go black and leave the lug nuts chrome. That would look much more finished IMO.

Nice otherwise.

I love those forgelines. But I would remove those words on the face of the rims.
I didnt really look to see, but if the center of the hubs are rusty, I would paint em black (with something like rustoleum maybe)
I think it's gonna look awesome, once you lower it
