    I was worried that it might have been too flashy but after looking at them together, these things look tough. I wanted to do something other than the usual black wheels plus all my past vehicles had black wheels so this change is good for me. Really happy with my choice. Vin at @SCSPerformance did a fine job and the transaction was very smooth. Thanks again, Vin!

    Man! That looks great! I have the F5s with 3.5 BS. Those looks really really good.

    How's the rubbing up front? I had to chop a plastic and bang in my pinch welds pretty good to clear my 265s with the 3.5 backspacing.

    Thanks. I could clear my 285's with very very minimal rub at full lock. I'm at around 2.75" of lift up front.

    I wish the SR8's or Stealth 6's had that color........ They look good with that green.

    I'm very happy with how it turned out. Definitely took a plunge and it was worth it.

    I haven't had time to get the DSLR out and go anywhere, but whatever. Phone pics will do. I still can't resist the urge to look back at it when I get out of it.

    Love the green/copper combo

    That last photo was a test to see if I wanted to keep the stealth logo on my front skid. Went for the cleaner look and took it off after the shot.
