It looks good, but its almost like it needs a little contrast or something...especially since you can see so much of the barrels. Overall though, it looks great and took a huge set of ***** to powdercoat those wheels completely white...

Thats one thing I love about CCWs is the curved spokes...I guess because the HREs and iForged are 3 piece, they seem to have more of a flat profile to them.

Looks good, but the white is just so bright. They almost stand out more than polished wheels, I have a thing for charcoal...

I grew up broke, put myself through college as a pipefitter and welder, waited tables at night. Got my degree in Mechanical Engineering, and work in the offshore oil/gas industry. I also write/shoot for GM High Tech, and started two automotive businesses.

In other words, I'm not lazy. Gotta be motivated and ask yourself what could you be doing to make more money, other than sitting on the couch playing XBox. lol. Never tell yourself "I can't afford that". Instead, you need to ask yourself "What do I need to do, to be able to afford that?", and then do what it takes.
