hey - these look really great!! they remind me a lot of Boyd Coddington "Dictator" rims, but at over half the price they're also available in 19"s which is cool, as the potholes in my area would eat up 20s in a second

good find - cheers.

Very nice, I like it. I bet those tires were a pretty penny.

cdemot02: Looks great. Would look good if you painted the calipers red!!!!

Where can I get the calper paint? I was thinking about blacking out the rear, and ordering the Steeda Hood and painting it black and silver. Not sure what color to paint the calipers....

I bought a caliper paint kit (black) from Napa auto parts. It was like $20. Although all you have to do is clean up the calipers real good, I used Methel ethel keytone (MEK) along with a wire brush to clean them up and some high temp paint. Any auto parts store should carry these. I would recommend painting them black. Just looks a lot cleaner IMO.

As for blacking out the rear, go for it. I did a while back and absolutely love it. It breaks up, what is normally a large rear end.

I need to make it out there. I'm still stuck in San Marcos until mid July. But I did reserve my Apt this weekend, and can't wait to be back. I'm debating on going on the cruise on the 17th.

My 20" Catalunyas just came in and are also pretty open. What size rotors should you get to fill up the space? Will 14"s be enough?
