Cool car. Needs rear widebody and a nice set of forged wheels. I laugh every time I see a car with blacked out stock type wheels like that. It looks like a blob of ink on the wheels barely able to tell what they are. lol

I agree on some points! Widebody for sure! Bought the car with the wheels and they come black weren't painted. Id rather not waste a ton of money on wheels (unless Weld setup) rather spend money on go fast parts! I laugh every time someone spends 3-5k on wheels and has a car that runs 13's lol Thanks for the input man!

With a different color like that, and mine, I would rather have the car itself stand out and be noticed than the wheels. Would rather my car as a whole get the attention not just some Shiney wheels...

13's is too fast for me and no way in hell would I drop $5k on wheels. That's nuts! lol

LOL, Mr.Sensitive. My wheels are color matched and shiny, get it right!



More direct to my point, cars with solid black wheels just don't photograph well unless the pics are doctored like crazy or have a talented photographer taking them. In a lot of pics, the cars look like they are just sitting on a black void.

This I 100% agree with. lol Really have to watch lighting, focus point and contrast especially with a bright color like the atomic orange can be.

Atomic orange + ADV1 machine finish 5 spokes = sex on wheels!

I do love the black halo though. The cars should have come that way from the factory.

That looks a bit more than just lowered on bolts.
