Default wheel pic request
Anyone have a pic of a C4 with these?

http://www.shop.jwmotoring.com/produ...&categoryId=20

I have looked thru the entire "Show off your C4 Custom Wheels" thread (and other wheel threads on here) and have yet to see this one. Looks interesting with its very narrow little machined lip.

Anyway, thanks to anyone who can post me a pic.

My car came with the c6 style wheels and They just don't look right on a c4. Sold them and got some period correct wheels. Look much better.c6style c4 c4 style

I think the C6 wheels would have looked great if the rears were 18 inch and front 17 or both 18. the 17 inch you had does look a bit small for the wheel style, but I still like it better than the other you put on. persoanl taste

I too prefer the C6s. The chrome on the A-molds looks nice...but otherwise I am not a big fan of them. If the C6s would have been chrome or black they would looked even better.

I got rid of the c6 wheels because I see them all the time on the c6's.Just got sick of looking at them. Also I like period correct wheels on cars.
