Talking Ice Ice Baby!!!!!

Just received my new iced out shoes...Kinesis K58R full polish (thanks to Gary FL ) and Ralph Boothe Lugs to go with them.

The Lugs from Ralph Boothe were everything that I expected! As beautiful as chrome lugs can be! If you're reading this Ralph, thanks!

When the wheels are in motion, they are drop dead gorgeous!!!

Im sure the maintaining the wheels will be a PITA, but well worth it!

Looks good! Just stay on top of them and the cleaning will go much easier. At least it is an open spoke pattern rathern than a basket pattern like my Kinesis K28's... you want to talk about a PITA to clean.

Bill,

You couldn't wait to get them installed and take pictures

They were not hard for me to maintain. I wiped them down after each drive. They are easy to wipe being open spoke. You are right in motion is when they really look good.

I must say they look Soooo much better on a dark colored car..

I'm glad your happy as I am with mine thanks to ESK...

I will try to post some pictures this weekend or I may wait until I get the techart bumper, side intakes and type 1 wing installed.

Plus you could not beat the price...

Nice I have the same wheels (polished lip and painted centers) on a black TT... What size tires you running btw? My 295s always look like they are too small

Thanks for all the compliments!

Im running stock sized tires, but i'll probably go with 315s when I need new rubber.

The exhaust that Im using is the "Turbo-Exhaust" from David(VA) with 85mm tips. The sound is awesome and the car breathes very well. Im sure it will perform well in Stephen's exhaust shoot out.

No wheel locks...need to get them sooner or later.


Gary...thanks again!
