I finally got these things mounted after sending two of them back to AFS wheels because of some blemishes in the finish. That was an unpleasant experience, but their customer service was awesome.

Car's dirty, but hey.....what do you want?

darn, those would look sweet on my torch red. I went with Fanblades initially, but may change to those after I get back to the States. They look awesome on your ride!!!!

I really appreciate the feedback. I was hesitant at first, but I really think they go well with the car.

If they had the 18" fanblades in this finish I would buy them in a heartbeat.

A lighter colored car with these really looks good. I could see a red color with these looking pretty sweet too. Allthough, legend lime and windveil would look

I want those for mine, but have no idea what they would look like on the Vista Blue

AFS wants ~$1400 shipped for those wheels w/tires, mounted & balanced, which is reasonable to my budget.

I just can't bring myself to buy something I have no clue what it looks like

They look really good on your car though

I like the wheels a lot, but the tires look to small for some reason, they look like you could have gone a lot fatter. Could you have and still kept your overall dia very close to stock?
I would consider these wheels when my stock tires wear out, but only if I could go with fatter tires.
