Default Got some new wheels! Pics

Well, after trading my old wheels and hood for some cash to help fund the new motor i'm gonna be needing soon, I finally broke down and got these after selling the stock thin spokes I got out of the trade. Sold the thin spokes recently and got these from JW Motoring. Awesome vendor here for us guys. Jhonathan sent these out fast and the wheels arrived perfectly as ordered.

Stock size tires from the previous 19/20 setup are gonna be much easier on the wallet in the future. LOVE these wheels!

Thanks again Jhonathan!


Some crappy iphone 4 pics.

Those do look really good and I normally don't like black wheels. I think I saw them on his site and if I'm not mistaking he doesn't have a 18-19 setup yet.

I was going back and forth in my head about chrome or black. Even considered the black C6 style 18/19 with red lip. In the end, tire cost and the deep dish won out.

Thanks for posting those up! I've been wondering what they look like on a car and those look alot better than they do sitting without tires and such. Might have to think about those when the time comes... wonder how they'd look on yellow....

Car is looking great man. Nice and mean. I love those wheels especially on black cars. Keep that car looking nice.

I have a pair of custom rear side marker lights, brand new from GSCreations, if you are interested. There black with the Punisher logo on them...
