 |

Here is our 65, the wheels were on the car when we bought it. I didn't like the black in the wheels so painted it silver. Trying to decide the best way to lower the front, hopefully by this spring that will be done.
After
Have Fun!

I want them on my car, once my quarterly bonus comes in, I am ordering them.... Already have the Falken 185-65-15s to put on them... I have been searching for a wheel that came in 4x130mm that had more of a classic race look, and these fit the bill just right.... Have to be pretty light as well being 15x5.5.. |
