New Chrome wheels!
3 Attachment(s)
Just put on some 18 x 8 chrome Avenue wheels. I went for these because they have a little of the fat and skinny spoke look (classy) with the bolt on pattern between them (sports/race look). Any feedback would be appreciated.

looks very nice....

Hey, just checked out your site (jenkins-crew) - what are the radio buttons for?

neons, strobes, and stuff like that. Turning it into a show car.

(No clue about the offset) Drop with the H&R is about 1.5 inches (if not more) front and back.... |
