That looks nice.

Shouldn't the numbers be more visible (more contrast to background color)? Nonetheless, nice to see something unusual in HC.

The machined/polished lip on the wheel provides a visual division between the when and the tire, thus solving the biggest (visual) problem with black wheels. I still prefer to see the wheels as one of the lightest parts on the car, but if you gotta have blacks, the polished lip is the way to do it...

Actually, the rest of the photos will be posted soon on Speedoptions.com- but I'll let you know when it's live.

BUT- since you asked for somemore, let me get something together- if you insist....

MMM nice!

Who makes that front lip, or is it a one off deal?

Any more air pushed towards the brakes?

My 94 had a Greddy lip, until some people outside a Bar in "the OC" tried to steal it, and I ended up running over it @ 70 mph. haha.
