actually, no. i still don't think the vs-xx's were hard to clean at all. in fact, i've never complained that they are hard to clean. BUT, these challenges are still easier.

I don't get it. You loved the other wheels, they were "perfect" and so you sell them? Sometimes if it ain't broke, don't try and fix it.

i think it looks tight.....maybe get them resprayed a gold closer to your inspiration? the current godl is really light....i think darker would be better with DG

congrats on the switch though!

thanks to all for the comments and criticism. both are welcomed as long as they are in good taste (yes, criticism can be offered in good taste).

that doesn't make much sense. before my car was very common. now it's less common so it should be easier to remember. how many dg's can you name with gold wheels off the top of your head?

i wasn't quite convinced on this shade of gold at first, either. in fact, i'm sure there is another shade that would look nicer. but these have really grown on me in the past couple days.

Plus i donno how people think gold wheels look good with DG
it's actually not all that uncommon in other parts of the world.

perfection is subjective. and imo, there can be more than one set of perfect wheels.

again, thanks to all for your c&c. i'll try to post better pics ASAP.

I'm not a fan of gold on DG, but it's not horrible. Hurry up and get the fitments dialed in with some spacers.

front's already have spacers from my works - 15mm. these have a weaker offset, though - +28. i will be going with 25mm up front soon. the rears will have 5-10mm spacers when i go with smaller tires (275/35) soon.
