New wheels are ON
The caps wound't fit over the hub, but I want to polish the hub to match the lip. Not sure what i wanna do with the rear. On the ground you can see my old 255/40/17's... Way too heavy for an n/a. I can light these up and get them sliding much easier then those OZ rims. I know alot of people wanted to see these actually ON the car so here they are.
I'm gonna replace the wheel locks with normal studs for the look. Those old rims were about 3grand with tires so I wanted to make sure they didn't get "Lost" but now it's form over function in that respect.
They are rota slipstreams btw.
Close ups of the rims can be seen here: http://66.92.46.18/defekt/wheels/

Those are 16's but the different colors make the wheels look smaller then they really are.
