New wheels are on, check'em out

These are made by BOZE and called "Tach" http://www.zeforged.com
You can get them in any finish you wish, from polished, painted, powder coated, satin, brushed and so on.

We opted for 20x10's in the rear and 20x8.5 in the front, brushed finish on the centers with a polished flute in the center of the spokes.
They also engraved our JLT logo on the center caps.

Tires are Nitto 555 extreme's 285/30/20 rears and 255/35/20 fronts.

Yes it's raining and I drove it to work today, but I'm a kid again and I had new wheels and tires ready to go on it.

They won't be as hard to keep clean. The stock wheels are a magnet for dirt.

That is more the brake pads than it is the wheels. I am planning to change my brake pads out this Spring.

I disagree. I beleive the wheel's design and the sharp edges of the spokes have a lot do with it. Many times I've gone out driving in perfect weather with the car completely clean, barely using the brakes, and an hour later the car is fine but the wheels need cleaning.

How does that explain the layer of black dust behind all of the wheels and all over the back end of my car?

No doubt brake dust is part of it along with whatever sticks to the wheels.

Looks great -- was considering them as well -- finished in the exact same way (brushed/polished center).

Just can't quite get over the price yet. Make me jealous of your rims though, that's for sure.

Those rims look nasty! To me, those are almost perfect as far as metalpen space.
