Aws, Looks good, (dont hit me) but Im starting to dislike those rohstyles (you did say they were ford ones though didnt you ? ) Maybe they just need the black outs done on them, and car = lower... Cheers,Chris been thinkin bout this... matt black rims with gloss black black outs! mite even try it on 1 of my spares! for this car tho gana go standard skinny az 13" steels with pie dish hubcaps, may try 1 out in the orange see how it looks and drop it, may wait 4 next wof tho...(2 drop it) lil bit worried bout it neva dun a chop job b4!
