Look great man... gloss black center w/ a nice polished lip is the best wheel setup for a yellow ride

These wheels look very cool. I also like the lowered look. Is it easy to lower with the stock suspension or do you have to buy new suspension parts?

These are around $1100 each wheel, plus tires. I didn't pay that as I bought them used (barely).
