Very true, if only the offsets weren't so conservative on them... Craigslist can be your friend though, I got 19" Volk CE28s for $650

Sorry, I don't. I think the z-tube, spacer and Stillen intake combined give it a distinctive growl. I'm going to get a custom tune soon and, I believe that will change it too.

Thanks. Admittedly, though, I stole the idea from Mike Grote

I added some spacers since these pics...need to get some new pics up soon.

Went to a wheel finsiher here in TX. and they had that color available.
Now deciding between, Porsche Gunmetal with a machine finshed lip, OEM refinish, or GT-R gunmetal.
Anyone think that dark gunmetal as in GT-R wheels is kinda played out or not?
