If you buy some CCW's... You will be my hero.

BTW, what color would you recommend I powder coat mine? I wanted to do a dark matte bronze, but I'm debating just keeping them silver. Any colors that would look good with GGP? Not white lol
trav, i rather have a 8.5 in the front just for extra clearance with my fenders, but in actuality it is almost the same specs as the 9 fronts, i just dont need the extra width in the front...i like the steering not as heavy..

yah im debating on the CCW since i can get them for 2200 custom everything...

for the color i think you should do them teal! im serious too! hahaa! but for me i was gonna order the SBC color since i like bling wheels that are eye-catchy! haahha! but seriously be crazy with the color! even highlighter yellow!

All of his current wheels are 17's, and the LM's were 17's as well.

Well... He has a set of 18's in the works but he won't tell me what they are. Bastard.
