I like your SP20s. Way to be different. I agree that picture I put in the original post is what made me fall in love with them along time ago. Ive also always had a chubby for some big brakes up front too.

Ok Here are the pics now that I am not on my phone. I am just talking the finish not the actual wheel (granted the wheel would look killer, but it's only available in 20+ sizes). The finish is a brushed finish on the face, with a tinted clear, then chrome lips.

I normally don't quote pics as it pisses me off but "Tru Shine Van FTMFW!"



The wheels on the other car are nice.

Yes, that finish on the Senekas on a NBM would be awesome IMO.

I dont know how much I like that. Maybe its the wheels that are turning me off. If I remember correct, Iforged only offered the centers/lips in chrome on the 3pc wheels as well.

I hit up Tony today with a few more Iforged questions. Also inquired about deep concave CF5s and when theyd be out. Im still leaning toward some CCWs but we shall see.

Well Tran I found out what I already knew. Chrome isnt available on 2-piece Iforged's. I was hoping I could do chrome centers and a polished lip. If that was possible I think I wouldnt mind waiting the 8-10 weeks. At this point its between 505s and possibly the titanium center classics I posted in this thread. If I can see a photoshop on NBM Id probably pull the trigger on them. To me they look like they would look amazing on NBM. I hope deep concave CF5s are delivered soon..

Ill give you the link from another thread. I dont even own a camera so I know cell phone pics wont cut it for PS. I dont know if anything will work but its worth a shot. I found a few high res NBM pictures from various angles and posted them in the last page. Theres a good amount of the Corba in there as well.
