Man, my car looks really purple in these pics! Its monterey MAROON I SWEAR!! Oh and the exhaust is the hooker kit painted black, I intend to enlarge the factory rectangle ends and weld them on soon. Should look stock, but bigger!
These look very sinister at night, sadly I doubt that would show in pics.

Man it realy looks purple in these pics...it's monterey MAROON I SWEAR. The exhaust is a Hooker cat back, painted black, w/out the tips. I intend to enlarge the stock rectangle ends and weld them on soon.

These look really mean in the dark, too bad I cannot show that well in pics.

What do you guys think?

BTW you learned something from me regardling how the rims look on your car and now I learned what my car will look like with no badges(which is something I'm going to do soon).

Yeah Frosty, loose the badges. It was real easy. I heated them w a heat gun and peeled them off. A soft plastic bondo spreader helps too and will not scratch. For the Glue and tape left behing, get a rubber wheel (pencil eraser-ish rubber) for a drill at a body shop supply company. It takes the glue and foam tape right off once you get your technique down (slow speed and not too much pressure). Then clean the area-wax-and you'll never know they were there!

Tint is coming when budget allows. And I'm still considering the lowering idea.

Hey man...looks really good. I like it. I would say to lower it also, but that would make me a hypocrite.

Does anyone have pics of the Triple Chrome plated version of these wheels on an F-body? I'm not so hot on the gunmetal/black inside look but I like the rims a lot. Thanks.

Can you give me some info off of the box they came in or something, I want to order them at work tomorrow but I am not sure which one of my sources will have them cause I don't know who makes them.

Yeah, I second that. I'd also still love to see pics of chrome or polished versions. Also, has anyone found a better center cap option. I think they are a great wheel but the design just kind of "ends" in the middle where they should come to a point or something. Looks a tad half assed.

They do need a pop in bullet type cap, but then they would really look like TTII's for a lot less money.

They need a different center cap to get the damm corvette style logo off of there. Everyone loves myrims but then says "you need to get those center caps off of there"

I agree with them.
