love em, can adjust them in about 10 mins whenever i like, can go lower than lowering modules and a lot cheaper. Had links on my S600 as well for 4 years without a single problem. Highly recommended

I also use links from the same guy. John is a GREAT guy to deal with and I haven't had any problems since the install. Definitely recommend it to anyone thinking about lowering their car!

Sexy rims V!

Still haven't gotten around to look at'em in real life yet, maybe tomorrow!

I saw your ride with the rims for the first time last night on bridgeport. With your lighting mods your car really looks great at night. My girlfriends exact words were...

"that thing is sex on wheels"


Talk about a compliment!

This car came out really well as you can see.

As some are asking , either blind or exposed bolts are available on most styles, however our designs have mainly been used with the blind bolts.
Black or colored inner barrels have always been an option.
