Love the wheels, but i'm digging the stance!

Is it lowered on stock bolts or aftermarket bolts?

you know I'm not a fan of black wheels but I can't say that the spiders look bad in black.

What I'd really like to see are these wheels with a machined face and lip I've been seriously contemplating this for my speedlines and I think it would look great against SW

i agree on smoking the tails, but i think i'd mask off the signal portions... that'd be naaaas-ty!

EDIT: oh, and by the way, OH1Z06: you suck... you got my wheels, punk! awesome car!
