Well guess what at least your original, I wanted those rims but they were out my price range. I love those rims.

lookin sweet man. cant believe they dont come with centrecaps! i have some spare black & silver Work Varianza centre caps if you want them :P

gotta agree though go more aggressive with some spacers and it will look insane!
