I wish the inside of the Mustang looked as good as the outside.

I'd be driving one.

Hmmm. So would putting these on the Genny be sacrilegious?

Not just yet. Still have to convince the wifey.
Seems like a fair trade. I just finished building her a walk-in closet.

I see they are Works. What's the model? Also, is there a particular picture you want them on? Most of the Rspec photos on Google suck. Is a non-Rspec just as good aesthetically?

Work VS-XX in either burning black or gunmetal.

Yeah a titanium gray non RSpec is fine.

Appreciate it man.

Here is one for now. I wasted a lot of time putting the wrong model on the rear wheel. I'll do a black one too.



EDIT: This appears to be a Platinum Genesis. I'll get a Titanium.

There is an illusion that is created by these wheels that makes them appear smaller than they are. The lip and the plane of the rivets makes them look small. The pictures I made are more of a 21" wheel than 20". If you want the appearance of 20"s, you may want to consider 21"s.

There are a lot of mesh-style options out there. I'm no fan of wheels with the bolt heads on them and think you could get a better look from some of the others you are considering.

I totally agree with T on this one. In fact I still think the original ones you posted on the BMW are the best looking ones. Quick chop of them.

My vote would be CV2s, but then again, I'm not buying.
