And I do agree with Nexx....that brushed rim with a polished lip looks awesome on most colored cars.

Any pics of Gunmetal LE37? I think I narrowed it down to either polished J5's or LE37.

Mgl, your car looks freakin sexy!

bronze would look best on a black honestly, but then it actualli looks somewhat ok with white too. but with silverstone, id realli say gunmetal plus polished lips would be best, like that SF challenges one earlier.

Dull like a rusted battle ship.

I thought you were joking at first, but your car is hot bro. Not sure if it's the pictures, the kit or the drop, but your SS with gunmetal rims looks much better than the others posted here.

Thanks for the compliments bro!

It's the offsets and a little elbow grease with the micro-fiber towels before taking pics.

I might trade my SF-Challenges in for silver Axis wheels. IMHO Axis wheels are alot stronger than Volks.

I've been reading all these stories about Volks cracking.

If you ever decide to sell your Volks, let me know.

I just got ordered a set of the Work Emotion CR Kai in gunmetal and will sell them as soon as they arrive on the 31st of this month.
