Well Gents I decided to rebuild my 3 piece ADV.1's (new inner barrels both front and rear on one side) as well as new black anodized bolts.

I love the look of the stepped lip design, and the wheels would have been a throw away if I didn't have them completely refinished.

Question now is what color to have the rims powder coated in? I want the wheels to pop
  • Mag blue
  • Volk red
  • Copper penny
  • matt Black face, gloss black barrels
  • Bronze

Currently they are finished in Malbec illusion
Winters are finished in Volk Red

If you want the wheels to pop, you might want to try copper that is more on the orange side. Just google copper orange wheels

Well considering the picture was taken yesterday; not too much bigger!

She's 10 weeks old, but will be roughly 65lbs once fully grown.

Oh, you edited the first post. I thought it was taken a while ago. :P

The wheels need to be fully assembled, sealed and true'd yet.

I'm gone for work for 2 weeks, and got them the night before I had to leave.

They will be on the car by the 18th
