I think I'd like them better in chrome. But they kinda match your hood this way

in person, they actually match my hood and emblems (trim) very very well, looks like the same color. i was kinda tired of the chrome, ready for something less flashy

I love those rims and the way they compliment the NBM, wish they weren't on backorder for so long. I want them if they ever become available again.

Yeah, I couldn't tell how well they matched everything from the pics, but that's awesome.

yes, the lip is the same all around, same size rims and tires on all 4 corners for once. now i can actually rotate my tires.

i found them from a member here, he had 3, but i had to find the missing piece of the puzzle to complete the set. i called everywhere for a month or so. then i called discount tire and they guy in the warehouse went and checked for me, found 1 set, said it wasnt in the computer, but he had seen it back there. so he went and checked, said it was there, and i bought one of them. he said that was the only set in the entire company. so i dont know when they will get anymore, if ever.

I saw pics of the Privats on a Navy Blue TA before so I knew your car would look great.

Looks great. I think the addition of a wings west grill painted NBM would finish the outside of the car.
