Default New wheels on the '05 CS...

After looking around for a bit, I got [what I believe to be] a great deal on 22" CECs w/ Yokos. They replaced my 20" Sport Designs and to my delight w/ the PASM the ride's not harsher as far as I can tell.

I also popped in the clear side markers and got some darker tint (it's a SoCal car) all the way around.

Let me know what you think:

Very stealthy! Love the blackout ALOT, probably because I've gotten used to mine being "aluminumed out." Can we see more detail of your wheels.
A pair of blacked out rear lights would be the creme-de-la-creme, they look awesome on blacked out rides. Check them out - http://www.automotion.com/productpag...ked+Taillights

Here is a CTT with the smoked/black-out tailights on for a view. Your car is slammin' as it is, just a suggestion though.

Another peek at a different blacked out CTT.
This one also has the rear smoked tail lights.

I was thinking about smoking the taillights but I figured it'd be just another excuse for CHP to pull me over. On top of that I probably would have had a beer in me too.

Here are some more shots. Didn't want to post these 'cuz the car's a bit dirty.

Here's a hi-res one so you can check out the wheels:

Dude, Ponch and John are not out there to bust you. Aren't you violating some laws with tinting of the driver and passenger side windows anyhow? Are there actually laws against having smoked tail lights, even if they light up for braking and signaling properly?
I was seriously considering getting the cargraphic tail lights myself.

Dirty or not, your car is totally stealth, it looks mean!

Not sure, but I must be hitting the same pipe because I just took the plunge tonight and ordered the set. I think they are bad ***.

Anyone know about any laws (in Illinois) or anywhere for that matter against these taillights? They claim to have normal visibility when engaged.
If I am reading this correctly...there are no restrictions on smoked tailights in IL.
