Hi Ben,

>You know DR, you should have those rotor hats done up in black chrome too. That would be sick!!!

Cool idea!

>BTW, what's the ETA on my cast hole rotors?

I checked with Jeannie and they are leaving again today. UPS screw up (long story). Sorry.

Tony,

>Boy, is that Euro ever going to hook up!

Yep, but not as good as these do (Tom's "Big Bird")

I know someone already posted the AT Rivas, but here's another look with painted calipers and rotor hats:


Well, apparently the pic is too large to upload. I'll try to make it smaller.

Remember tony that those TT wheels come in hollowspoke with the 65mm offset and 10", which woulc work on a front end. That would be sweet if it works. Maybe a bit of fenagling with rolled lips, etc.

BTW, here is the same set with the standard finish ..


That looks awesome!!!!! However, in black chrome that would be perfection against the Amazon Green.

You sure you don't want to trade for whats in the glass jar . 20 years of spare change I've been saving for something special. Have no idea how much is in there but it weighs about 600 pounds and has rolls of SBA dollar coins in the middle.

DR: Did you have to roll either front or rear fender for the fitment shown on your car? I'm desiring 18x9.5 & 19x11 on the back as long as I don't have to roll: my next car will be prestine.

Wow, who's OB WIdebody is that in post #249 (also on page 1)? That is absolutely gorgeous. It looks completely modern and very sexy. It looks like a cross between a GTS and an 85. Usually the thing I don't like about the OB is the rubber rear spoiler, but here it really works. Great lines, and the wheels fit it perfectly. I Love It!!!!!

PS Nevermind. I went back and reread some of the earlier posts. This is Koenig928's beast.

DR, thanks for the info. My car is a driver, and I just don't have the time to keep all that hardware clean.

Dave, those mirror polished wheels don't clean themselves do they?
