Looks like it fill up the wheel arch nicely. They are 19s?

SF_VR6 · 07-06-2008, 05:19 PM

Very nice. May I ask how much was the total including install?

Upgrade+ · 07-06-2008, 05:34 PM

first black 1 i've seen with the performance wheels. looks great.

Brandon26pdx · 07-06-2008, 06:04 PM

They probably look more impressive in person, but in pictures they don't really add or subtract anything from the look of the car compared to the stock wheels, so why spend the money is my theory...

MastaMind · 07-06-2008, 06:10 PM

Looks good.

18's just like the factory wheels.

That's where I'm living. They do look nice, but then so do the stockers.

Guess I'm the only one who doesn't really like these wheels. I think they don't look 'powerful' enough. Prefer the stock wheels...

I like them both so I have these wheels ordered. Yours look very nice. I am seriously thinking about having the stock wheels powder coated AW just to be able to switch the look depending on the situation & my mood.

What size are they?

Garris · 07-08-2008, 07:39 PM

If you don't mind my asking, did you buy these after or did the dealer give you a credit on the standard wheels and you ordered these at purchase?

professor · 07-08-2008, 07:46 PM

stunning. those wheels look absolutely gorgeous on the JB.

Nice1 · 07-08-2008, 08:33 PM

Looks great on your JB JohnL135I! They may not be as easy to clean as the (Acura-ish) 264s but sure looks a lot nicer! :w00t:

ptack · 07-08-2008, 08:47 PM

Very nice. I wish they had them in gunmetal or hyperblack.
Still, at least they are a perfect fit.

You really have to see the rims in person. This car is all about angles.

I'm considering getting the gray portion of the wheels powdercoated black, just tossing the idea around for now.:biggrin:

JohnL135I · 07-08-2008, 09:13 PM

Above pic is a lot better angle, fuzzy pic, but better than the first few I posted.

jraymond · 07-09-2008, 10:54 AM

I think these are complete BALLER IMO. The CF Spoiler with the black and the Coral also is sweet. Very nice.
