DAMN !!!!!! I am removing my foot from my mouth. That looks amazing. I am sold!!!!! Its simple but classy and I think because the spokes are thicker it looks very nice. It is going to be very hard to decide between the CV4 and CV3

I wasnt sure about the lipless wheel but I like the fact that it makes the wheel look lager. Very cool!!

What will it look like with 10.5 up front. will those same wheels and tires out back work up front...same offset too. I'm thinking practical...I like rotating tires.

lol.. that's funny you noticed... i got "the call" just before lunch tues... i cleared my schedule an ran straight to my painters shop.. went back an forth for an hr or so on color.. then i finally decided on Mitsu Evo "Electric Blue" then about 3pm we started the paint process... didnt finish til after 8pm..
(i'm going back next tues to have him add a lil something to it... hope it turns out well)

we didn't have time to add it before the test fit because i had to get up around 5am to be in Vossenville by 10am.. and the extra paint work would have taken at least 3 to 4 more hrs to dry..

if i get invited back i'll make sure the car is really worthy...

but the CV3's brought my car to a whole new level...

D, I swear the fronts don't look like 9" width. They look like 22x10.5's up front.

What a great look those 22's add man.

I'm so jelly.

It's only because of the 5 spoke design but in the end who is focusing on the rotors when you got those sexy *** VOSSEN concaves

VOSSEN is BIG TIME !!!!

@ CCJ22 ...10.5's wont fit up front unless you do heavy fender mods...they told me a few guys in south fl were doin it on some trucks.. but yeah theyre 9's up front... but as wifey always says "it looks even bigger when its in your face!!!"
