looks great.
the silver edges set off the black wheels.
i dread the day when i have to give up my 17x11 grand sport a molds (for better tire choices as 315/35r17 as choices are dwindling every year it seems)

Thanks guys...my previous C4 had 17x11s all around so I figured I'd try a new setup on my 94. When I bought the car in 2014 it had chrome sawblades and immediately switched to chrome Amolds, then custom 19s and now I'm sure I'll stay with the CCW 17s. I always loved the Amolds so those were my favs until now. I couldn't stand the 19s, not sure what I was on - It looked great but high speed on Cali highways made me nervous (correct suspension travel at high speeds + quarter panel rubbing = something bad).
Anyways, wheels are CCW Race Classics 17x11.5 rear and 17x10 fronts, I just finished reassembly Friday so threw the tires on yesterday. Tires are 315/35/17s all around and NT05 fronts and the NT05R drag rears. Unfortunately, I snapped a front stud yesterday (haste makes waste) so I have ARP 100-7708 studs and open ended Gorrilla and Mcgard lock nuts enroute courtesy of Summit.

Polisher finished the lips last week and I reassembled the wheels last Friday so I haven't had to clean them yet lol. I drive the car once or twice a week so it shouldn't be too bad

So I got to replacing the studs with ARP ones (PN100-7708) this weekend since my old ones were done and added open ended locknuts
