Hope these dont end up like the nozzle's, and everyone decides to get a set.. I was looking forward to not seeing other people around with the same wheels as mine..
Here are a few pics i have taken with a crappy 195/55 R15 tyre on one of them, I will be running 195/50 R15 so they will look a little different when i buy tyres. This is with standard camber, and no rolling or flaring on the guard.
They stick out quite alot from the side of the car, so i will be ordering some flares to cover them up. They rub in a few spots so I will have to modify the inner guards a little, but nothing a little negative camber, and some rolling/flaring wont fix..

Shouldnt have publicised them then eh? Seriously, the only thing that would protect your exclusivity was if they were expensive. Sometimes i regret spending big on my Work Nezarts but i doubt i will be seeing any others. Just enjoy the wheels, i doubt that most people will be prepared to run defectable (and insurance voiding) rim size / track / rubber outside guards on the road.

They look so mean that I contacted the seller and negociated a price for 5 sets.
$300 posted per set if there is any interest?
Just kidding.

Hurrumph!
it's all your fault anyway. GC was feeling all unique and loved when he bought his thooper dooper fluidic washers and you took all that away from him with that smallish group buy you so kindly organised.
Hence the wheels.
Thou, as much as it pains me to admit this, those wheel look $hit hot.
