^^^^^Thats Ok if you dont care for them. That is why we are all individuals. What is it about them you dont like? What wheels are you running out of curiosity?

BBKs are desperately needed front and rear. The stock discs appear really small under 20's.

Yep. With 20's, I'd check out the 405mm Brembo GT kit for the fronts.

I am trying to get it there. Still a work in progress. I am looking for some vinyl to match my wheels so I can do my roof. I am getting ready to redo my seats so that can show off my work.

This is why I went forged this time. So if I bend one I can just replace the barrels or change the faces if I get bored.

I would have responded sooner, but my boner knocked me out for a few hours when it hit me under the chin. GOD those are nice! I love the big air the brakes are getting and the way it sets off the silver car (which of course is the best color )

Can I ask what those put you back and do they offer other styles as well?
