  3. You hit it right on the head my friend, great choice, I would leave them black. I'm a big fan of black painted wheels with caps & rings. And you wanted our advice....

  19. Very nice! Are those center caps called Shannon cones?

    I'm running black steelies with Spider caps for now.

    Any plans on skirts for the rear?

    Are you going to run skirts? you need whitewalls with some lancer hub caps with bullet tips. or you could always get something you like
