Hmm, those tires looks really thin. What size are they? Otherwise those wheels sets off the car.

nice, your car really reminds me of mine.. i love that paint!... FPR just lights up

and the CL-S rims are so sick.. but the way it sticks out.. looks awesome but also hits curbs, thats why i painted mine also

anyways i think the Gold will look hot on FPR, but i think i needed a different shade. slightly darker/deeper

I'm gonna re-do mine with gold on the star and black on the inside like i currently have with silver

Love the new look, but like someone already mentioned. Tires does look thin. I gotta find myself some clean/near perfect condition CL-S wheels.

May be the cleanest set of CL-S rims i've ever seen. Seems like there are not scratches at all on the faces.

Love the wheels! Please don't paint them gold. Looks horrible IMO. Your car is coming along very nicely! Can't wait to see it at the next meet.
