Default New wheels!

New wheelssssss , Hamann unique forged 18's design (thought of doing something different)
urm sorry if you guys were expecting 20's but 18's is fine for me so yeah

next mod is new tires (currently running on 245/45) will change to 235/40 all around, and a drop. Hopefully next week.

Leme know what you guys think any input would be appreciated

I like these. I was actually picturing them on my RX300, which being black, would make it look great, too. Excellent choice.
