Default teaser pics (winter rims)

Sorry, this is a duplicate post; exactly the same as the one in the LS forum. I realized not everyone visited every sub-forum. Moderator, if this is against CL rule, please delete one the post.

Anyway, today's my happy happy day after a couple of weeks with ENVY seeing my bro's ride getting pimped out (screenname "blackened", blk/blk GS3 on Veilside Andrew Golt). So now it's my turn. Bunch of thanks to William (GS4Will) for making this happen, although slightly delayed.

Some close-up on the wheel specs. Comments, fellow enthusiasts ? Suggestions ? Critics ? Accolades ?

this is supposedly the summer / fall setup, but they are a little delayed; hence they become winter setup, at least until snow really comes. Heck I've waited so long for them to arrive, I can't wait until spring to see them on my car. Anyway, here they are: 20 x 9 (+37) and 20 x 10 (+45). Lips are ~1.25" all around, kissable ... but not too sexy

I will try to have them installed by Saturday, so stay tuned. Oh, and thanks a bunch to our wheel-man William (GS4Will) who helped me getting these wheels.

Default thank you all

you all in CL contribute to this, ya know ? Seeing all the nice modded cars in here make me want to try modding my car.
As for the wheel choice, I think the dish would go well with the "bulky" bodyline of my car. And I'm a little old school (though I'm 23), so nothing too fancy, nothing too eccentric, just something simple & elegant.
Again thanks for the comments. I will post pics of the wheels on my car as soon as I have it installed.
William, no problem buddy. I'm very glad the wheels are here, and that they look very beautiful in person. pictures don't do justice.
