Hmm, my noodle started cooking when looking at this & the pictures.

Why wouldn't the Cadi caps fit? The stock wheel sizes do & it can't be because there won't be room with the lug pattern because . . . again . . . stock sizes fit.

Hmmm . . .

Got to send off my order form to Peter.

On the infrared front (thanks for the photoshop efforts guys), I'm only liking titanium and maybe matte black.

What's the word on titanium? Sent a note to peter on this also.

EDIT: Peter just responded all finishes are available.

What's wrong with the accessory wheels? I always thought they looked really nice.

I personally like the accessory wheels so staggered 19's for that price seems like a good deal to me. Just gotta decide which color I want. Hoping the stock black center caps will work.

I'll also be down for the hankook tire deal if a lot of people get together and we get a good price.

Yeah worked for me. He confirmed I'm on the list and will process tomorrow.

You need to send him a CC number with the form sir. Don't think you want me to forward that info for you.

Yeah... I initially thought gloss black would be best but now I'm thinking gunmetal or matte black is the way to go on the silver

I emailed them again, and left a message on their machine. Thanks!


I'm going Platinum all day every day. I debated the gun metal for a minute, but that finish doesn't look like it will wear very well. You can see the scratches in the pics. It looks like maybe some dumb *** with a air ratchet nicked 'em up.

Plus dark rims make your wheels look smaller.

You know, you don't have to over compensate that much. They've had medicine out for years to "help".
