Default New Wheels 19 / 20's


Wheels - polished and sealed

]







They are Imola Design 21 chrome wheels. I purchased them from forum member CCONKLIN (Chris).

Next mods - slotted / drilled rotors and painted calipers. I ran out of time last night!

Congrats carnal...

Those look awesome! I like the fact that they are even polished on the inside.

Can't wait to see them in person... they really set off the black car

Beautiful wheels that accent the black coupe extremely well to make a stunning piece.

Those are really really nice looking rims. Awesome, those really look good on black C5's. Maybe it's time for me to trade-not my rims-just the car. Well of course I'm biased on the rims
