[QUOTE=carlos64030;14210666]Awesome looking wheels! I purchased a set of RPM 505s a few weeks ago, and the rears are being widened to 13" so I can run 345-30-19s.

Damn 13" are you mini-tubbed?

The HPs look great! Of course, I'm a little biased...

So, here's the thing...I hate doing things that a lot of other folks have done...so the refinishing is going to cause a lot of...response. I'm going with satin black centers & SOM lips... Just dropped them off today, so we'll see how they turn out.
Finally someone is doing this.. Ive seen some forged 360's on a SOM z06 before with that setup and it looked badass.. I've been thinking about doing a set of FIKSE FM5's but wasn't sure how it would look.

Edit: Just saw that pic, those looks sick.. Great rim style to have that done to. Cant wait to see them on the car.

2 things...
1. Need better pictures in the sun...
2. Still need the center caps (they are mailing them)...

Definitely a different look...looks much meaner now, and much better in person...
