good deal, fellas. and Ryan. , they are Konig Prophet Opals. one of the few wheels that they make that aren't outrageous/fugly.

yeah a lot of their designs are a little too "out there" for me, but i do like the set you picked up, and the pictures show them off real nicely.

the gunmetal/Opal finish does go well against black paint.

i don't know if i want to sell my stockies. if i do, you can buy them with center caps.

like i had said, Konig generally has fugly ass wheels. these are like the only okay ones. and i love the tires. as of yet, i haven't tried some spirited driving with the new setup. but i will.

i used what a couple of guys have used. a tape of the Trimbrite brand. it's meant for covering chrome. it looks okay but, i'll eventually get it painted along with my front bumper. but first, i'll be getting rid of the current pair of headlights. if someone wants a pair of '03 headlights, check with me.

I never realized how shiney your paint was untill I saw that last set of pictures. Paint like that would make Stealth proud.
