the wheels are actually nicer on the KC's car cause GM + Silver is better contrast than GM + SGM.
side pictures of them on my ride. Took them off, OEM back on for the winter, maybe I should get some megan arms and camber in a bout 1.5 degree and I should be good!

Fronts look perfect. Rear is a bit aggressive. I think with a drop and some fender work, it'll look pretty good. Although, with that kind of aggressive fitment, you can't really beast your car around as much anymore. There will be rub!

If I end up keeping them then i'll probably get rear camber kit with about 1.5 degree and I should be good.

With enough camber it'll look right. But then you lose some of of the driveability. Tough call.

I am to plain to rock this. I say no. I don't know anything about how it would effect driveability, but since they say it will... I say no on that fact alone. That's pretty much the reason my car is stockish now. Hey but what do it kno
