Yeah hell yeah do that. When I was buying them I had the option of getting them in black instead. I nearly did but I was buying them for the black wagon so they woulda looked abit silly. Probably put a clear on them tho. Matt black wheels won't hold up too long. Be mean.
By the way they are modelled on Lenzo Mean 6's, which I had before these in shadow chrome but some misrible swine stole them.

ill be keen on them mags if your selling them, Oh yeap. I already offered them to wildplumdx for 850, so if hes not keen then you can have them. Theres two other guys that got my number on trademe asking if they were for sale, but they can wait. I hate it when people try to buy wheels off a car thats for sale with wheels. I just need them for another couple of weeks untill I get my other wheels back from being widened.

Or do what cheap toms do and wander around pick apart until you find one thats short enough! Only thing, supercheap don't list lengths in their catalogues so you'll have to go somewhere else. I sare say repco but I found a suspension specialist and they are awesome. I'm STILL trying to get my rear shocks sorted. I need some that are 330mm long! haha thats some short nuts.

Yours will be vertical where as mine are on an angle, meaning they will be different lengths. In actually fact tho, this doesn't matter when you are changing them as they are both eye at one end, thread at the other. I'm not sure if 330mm shocks exist yet. I thought I needed 375mm and got some for a Falcon but they are too long. Spring still isn't captive so try again
