Default Weld RTS on SOM pics?

Do any of you guys have some pics of polished RTS wheels on a SOM car?

I've looked all over for some but have only found pics of black ones.

thanks

Nice, thanks man. No I'm Keeping the B/S, I was looking at the Welds so I could clear the stock brakes with 15's. I'm pretty sure I'm just going to get a set of drag brakes instead when I do the rear.

That guy was actually selling those wheels at one point,op if your going drag brakes that really opens up your wheel selection,rts are real badass but the 7.5 bs on thhe rear doesnt really appeal to me that much,its a diffrent wheel with a depper dished rear,now dont get me wrong still nice but stocklength vs cutdown rear they look like 2centerlines diffrent rims,slites are my fav wheel

I feel the same way, I like the welds with a narrowed rear. Stock rear not so much. I'm thinking I'm going to stay with my B/S streetlites, kinda hard to picture my car with something different.
