That's quite a daisychain you guys have going there.

I would sand, refinish and repaint in gun-metal color. OOoooooh.>..

My car is Pewter (silverish/creme color)

Leave 'em white? or see if I could get them repainted?

I might go for the Pewter/Black look(smoked tails, black rear lip, and gunmetal/black rims) .. But I don't know if it will look too well, lmao

I would totally do the silver/black theme. I suggested the gum-metal because I thought your car was black (from your signature :S)...but yeah silver/black would rock

Hector has the Pewter/black theme. Looks pretty damn good! I think it'll look good with gunmetal rims.

I even have WTB posts made for that exact wheel, But Can't find a single set until it's too late.

Yes, $500 with tires is a great deal IMO.

its not much different than the ones i put up for sale. except that mine had practically new tires ($800 michelins) and total was up for $1200. so thats like $400 for wheels only.

i didn't even use 1k miles... so if you get these and have to buy new tires in a month... you'll end up paying more if you buy the same michelins
