Default Thoughts on grandsports on blackWS6
I'm really just looking for a cheap street wheel for the WS6 to get off the prostars daily.

What is everyones opinion on the grandsports on a black WS6? I have a pic of them on a black formy ws6 and think they look pretty good

I love it, but that's because I'm getting them for my Z.
