sharp like pizza i am.. what is the offset? i bet is 35 or 42.

give me an hour or two and i might be able to recall the name and maker of the wheel. but that is going to be a stretch.

cool.

you did well.

soduka 10 is what i recall. maker has not come to me.

if you put some 245 40 18 on them you will be very happy, and have some rim protection..

The rims appear to be ADR Sokudo's... Almost bought a set for my Celica about 5 years ago. (Came in many different colors)

LOL! When I read the title, I thought you "didn't do gold" in reference to taj and him painting his car gold.
