Default Pics of The "New" Rays

Well, I'm the guy who was lucky enough to purchase GatorZ's custon Track Rays with the polished lip. My immediate reaction was stunned. I couldn't believe how much better they looked in person. Here are some pics, but they just aren't able to convey their true look in person.

They were packed like they were going on a space voyage and it was all very well orgainzed.

THANKS GATOR Z!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations! Those were trick then and still are now.

Did you notice a difference in suspension compliance or steering feel moving to the lighter wheel/tire combo?

You should powdercoat them black or something so the polished lip stands out. Looks good though.

Yeah that's what I meant ... those look pretty good and make the polished lip stand out.

Funny you ask that. I just got back from running an errand and I noticed how much easier I took a corner that I take to work everyday. It feels much more fleet footed than before and I really noticed the weight difference compared to the 17's when I was mounting the last night.

For my personal taste, I've never been big on black wheels in general that is. I've seen some black wheels that are sweet, but just not for mine.

Thumbs up

I dislike bling-bling wheels. Those are simple and understated. Function over bling.

I wish I had a better camera to take them. The camera is about 10 years old. Maybe now is the time to reinvest in a better camera. Thanks for the heads-up
