Test em out and see what you like. Or even try plasti dipping then a color of your choice and rock those. For example , bronze.

Those wheels look amazing when they're polished. There's another member here with a WDP TL and those exact wheels polished...can't remember his screen name...

I vote polished, but either way, I think they look great


Maybe leave the plastidip on for winter months (if they spread salt on the roads in your area) to kinda protect the wheels, then in summer months go the polished route...just an idea

I'm not a big fan of plasti dipped wheels either, but I do agree with 05_NBP_TL, if you use these wheels year round and they salt the roads, leave it on to protect the finish.

Polished! These wheels are at the top of my list if I were to get rid of my A-Specs. I want to see how they look on WDP.

well i got these used from a shop in cali.. the owner sold them to a guy and a few days later he came back and asked the owner to resale them for him cause they were to aggresive.. well long story short the wheels sat there for a year and the guy never told the owner of the shop what he wanted for them and they tried to contavt the guy several times and could get ahold of him ... so after about a month of me bugging the owner of the shop he sold them to me.. ive got just a tad bit over 1k in wheels and tire...

That's a crazy deal you got. I just researched the specs and they are more aggressive than I would like myself. I'd be fine running those in the rear, but it's too much poke in the front for me.

I like em, they look nice. Although the front might have a little too much poke for me.

I'm curious if anyone has the 3.3.1? Also, I see they have an 18x9.5 +30. I wonder if those specs would look good? I don't want to run a lot of camber to make the wheels sit flush. It won't be practical for me since I drive 20k miles a year. I want to keep my camber as close to factory spec if possible and I'd like to keep my fender work to just a roll.
