wheels look like they have some decent offset? or is one of those deceptive wheels?


They appear to give decent offset because the spoke curves inwards to expose so called "fake dish".

Should look good on the car though :D

Looks great Reggie!
I don't know about painting it the same colour, I can imagine why with the sideskirts and all, but GV lip looks best black :mrgreen:
