Montego Blue/Hyperblack VMR CSLs.

oneintheory · 03-20-2009, 09:06 PM

So, after a week, my rims got here. A big thanks to Jurrian @ EAS and Gill @ Tire Rack. I bent 3 stockers on a pothole, so I figured I'd just go ahead and put some aftermarkets on. So without further ado...

Fronts: 18x8.5, 225 Yokohoma S.Drive
Rears: 18x9.5, 245 Yokohoma S.Drive

Sorry about the crappy pictures. One of my younger sisters is on a trip through Europe with my camera, so these are Blackberry pics.

I think the car looks sexy. Couldn't be much happier.

Looks Great......Love that Hyperblack color on the wheels

HeyMoe53 · 03-21-2009, 08:29 AM

I've seen plenty of aftermarket wheels I didn't like, but this one is definitely two thumbs up!

InsaneSkippy · 03-21-2009, 08:41 AM

I LOVE IT! I've been trying to decide what color wheel to go with. I didn't want a glossy black, but I wanted something dark. These look PERFECT with the Montego.

Would you mind taking some angled shots to see how they fit in the fenders.

ki__ · 03-21-2009, 11:48 AM

When this color is clean, it produces the shadow chrome effect. Absolutley stunning...and then as they get dirty, they just kinda turn to a graphite or gunmetal type color. Very classy

Not at all. As soon as I can get my hands on a decent camera, I'll do a mini-photoshoot.

The comfort is better, but I don't know about performance yet. Gotta break 'em in a little first.

inorite?

I just washed it yesterday. Right before those photos, and I'm already gunmetal. I forgot to order some wheel wax, unfortunately.

Thanks for all the compliments. More photos soon.
