I gotta get some lowering springs sometime though. I like them, but they are a little noisy. (thanks blackspyder)

Nice choice! (I have the same ones). How did you get your hubs so clean? Do you have a plan for center caps (I am still trying to figure something out)

I like those very much! They look really good! I did a little bit of searching and found that they are also available in silver and white! I told myself I wont change the wheels unless I can find something I like in white. Definatly a prospect for me! Guess I am gonna have to do a little bit of PhotoShop since I cant seem to find a picture of a set of white ones.
