Default New pics with Ruff Racing's 931 19/20" Wheels!

Finally got to upload the pics today as many of you have been waiting for!
This is my 1997 100k mile beauty I bought 4 years ago when I was 18...
I considered painting the black inserts red to match the car, but do you guys think it would be too much?

Those are quite unique and very beautiful !!

I like the black/chrome contrast. You would lose that with red and yes, it might be too much....especially since your calipers are red too.
I'll bet somebody could photoshop that red for you to see how it looks.

Nice choice.....

The back i lowered on stock bolts, and the front i just tightened the bolts as much as possible. I need to lower it about another inch and it will be good!

Those look reall good because the flow with the tinted windows. Normally I'd say yeah, paint them red... but not this time.

Thanks guys, I might be selling these with basically brand new tires for $1650. I haven't even put 500 miles on these babys. Willing to trade for a 19/20" chrome Z06 combo to keep it somewhat stock looking...
