Nice, I like them! Loose the orange reflector and get tint and you'll be good to go.

Good, clean car. I like it...

Stealth ///M · 07-08-2012, 09:24 PM

I can't see them..

Nice. Maybe I'm wrong but it looks like your directional rear tires are mounted backwards.

At first, I was a big fan of black wheels on AW. But the more I see them on AW, the less I'm a fan. The main reason is that the wheel looks like they disappear with black. No contract with tire/wheel. OP, have you thought about Gun Metal?

I saw these from another member's car, I think that's what I'm going with next.

You're right ...I realized it after I mounted all 4 that they were all backwards ... like a jackass I had to do them all again

Oh well I should have been more diligent in the first place

They are all on the "to-do" list , I've already ordered a couple of parts.

I am a big fan of gunmetal... I really wanted to go all black with the AW...Its definitely a love/hate, they look great in person IMO

I have an AW with Matte Black Wheels combo and thinking about it now, I'm still VERY happy with them, but to just be different, I might have gone with the Gun Metal color like you suggested. Both look great, though

EDIT: What member's car is that? I'd like to see more

Just need some pics in better lighting. I'd like to see how they look.
