Seriously, I was hoping for a bigger punch too in the photos. They look dirtied in the shade/indoors and certainly don't photograph well with a phone in that lighting. Ill really need to snap some pics on the digi the weekend. Its a see it in person type of finish.

Wheels look great with the car. The combination of wheel, offset, tire and drop is perfect. (to me)
