Default new wheels
Thank you Tony (nineball)!

I purchased these from Tony these were his old White CCW SP600's

19/20

I went to my powdercoater and he knocked them out in one day! Picked them up this morning.

I went with a Matte black.

Which is 20% gloss. So its not glossy but not flat.

Here are some pics








The tires should be in tomm.

Nitto Invo tires.

285-30-19 fronts
345-25-20 rears

Ill post pics when they are installed!!


I also want to thank Tim again for lowering the car. Dropped the car off at Palmer Performance a few days ago and we knocked it out in a few hours!

Think I am also going to replace the silver stripes with flat black stripes.

Or maybe talk to Richie about doing a "ghost" stripes on the car.


Thanks Daniel!
