plans for future are lowering as soon as cash allows me to and new wheels let me know your thoughts and opinions good or bad

[DeanAngell1234]

Spray your wheels black buddy, will look awesome :) How low are you going?

[ryanc134]

either 50 or 60mm i was thinking and i have thought about having the wheels done just never seen another with black wheels

[Brettles1986]

I had a mauritius VTS with black S wheels, looked nice aswell but Gunmetal is better imo. I would only go as low as 50mm as it will rattle the shit out of you at that height, its just right.

[ryanc134]
