I liked the look of your HRE P40's better, just my personal opinion. These look good as well.

I like these way better than the white wheels you had a few rounds ago. My favorites on the Viper to date. Nicely done Tony.

They look good but it's hard to beat the P40s.

I still prefer the P40 HRE's but they are definitely a nice wheel.
