Dude, I love the new wheels.

With that being said, wtf is up with the "french" euro plate. Your car aint French and even German "tucked" plates look lame IMHO.

Sorry but my feedback is honest and to the point. Nice wheels!!!!!

Is that 20's? What size tires did you put? How do you like adjustable air ride? I have the same wheels in 20's and car feels like a pig! Slow to accelerate, heavy to brake. Looks super hot though!
