Phoenix, do you have any pics with less shadow around the wheels? I just ordered some dark stars the other day and I was curious how well these wheels shine.

They shine like a diamond in a goat's *** when the sun hits them just right. One thing I love about them is how easy they are to keep clean. I went from fully polished CCW 505a's to these. With the CCW's, they got the Adams 1 and 2 metal polish treatment after every time I took the car out. With these, I just wipe them down with some detail spray and they look just like they did when they came out of the box.

No problem. In hindsight, I wish I'd have gone with the 17x7 fronts instead of the 17x9.5 fronts, but oh well. I still love the setup and it does extremely well on the street.
