Your sig shows black wheels, are the crown spokes your winter choice? The car looks really sharp, this is the first spice orange that I like, and the first viper stripes that I like (not that my opinion matters).

A nice way to feed the midlife crisis, cheaper/healthier than other options.....

Well done.

Mike

Are you combining two posts? I don't see any other dark spoke wheels so I'm assuming you are referring to mine. They are actually a dark gun metal grey with polished lip (Enkei WMD's). They are year round since it doesn't snow down here. I run summer tires all the time.
Will be lowering it within the next week or two, waiting on my Megan Racing Coilovers, rear camber links, and a new Forge Intercooler and a couple other things.
If you weren't referring to my wheels, sorry. If you were, thanks.

Thanks everyone! This is my first "photoshoot" of Jack...it was fun! I need a better camera though.

The crown spokes have my snow tires on them. The BSB are my regular wheels.

Mid life crisis? I hope I live past 50; I'm only 25. lmao!

Thanks...I LOVE my stripes...they're perfect!

I think he meant the black wheels in my signature.

Hopefully I'm moving to a warmer climate...so I won't need the winter set up anymore!

Great pictures of Jack. Looks good. I wondered about the wheels too. I considered the summer/winter set scenario but went with running all season tires. Except for one incident (High centered which tires wouldn't help) it has run well in the snow. Jack looks great. Enjoy.

Very nice photos! The choice of background color (especially that of the brick and murals) really compliments Jack. Even reflections of the blue sky in the chrome blend with Spice Orange. Who says you need a better camera?
