Hello all,

The wheels are 22x9 front and 22x12 rear, mated to Pirelli 245/30/22 and 315/25/22 rubber. The car has also been lowered with a set of springs from Formula Dynamics.

Enjoy the pics!!

I'd like it a whole lot more if those lips were shiny but it's nice.

I don't get it either. Black centers with polished or chrome lips would be fine but all blacked out wheels just isn't logical to me. I wonder why guys can't see what I see.
Everytime I see a car rolling with blacked out I wheels I just shake my head. Spending good money to have your wheels disappear...I just don't see it.

I'm guessing it's the fad mentality. Someone does it to a nice car and others think it's the next big thing and want to follow. The fad mentality has always been a strong motivator in our society. It defies logic every time. It has to be that. The Pied Piper Syndrome is what i call it.

I fully agree with you except for one exception...: a killer white car with blacked out wheels... I'd drive that all day long!

Seen cars like that many times and it's even worse. The contrast of white against blacked out wheels overpowers the wheels more. Creating an effect like there are 2 holes in the side of your car.

Standing up close to it, I can see the attraction but that's the only good look for it....up close. All it would take is a shiny lip to make it work. Or a white stripe on the lip. Something to bring them out.

I know there are some people who are tired of me harping on this. I don't mean any harm. It's just one of the most illogical things I have ever encountered....to spend thousands just to make your wheels disappear and I can't stop mentioning it.
It would be more logical to do it to stock wheels. Can't see them anyway. Save some bucks. Same effect.
