All those spokes scare me (from a keeping-them-clean perspective), but they'll look awesome on the car! Nice!!

ps did you seal them????

hamh · 10-03-2015, 10:35 AM

I'll need to get a nice brush and I remember Alan or someone recommend a type of sealer for the rims too, I'll have to dig it out and do the same.

Post pictures of the wheels installed asap!

hamh · 10-03-2015, 11:32 AM

A shot of the MPE

hamh · 10-03-2015, 11:34 AM

Getting installed now, can't wait!!!!

hamh · 10-03-2015, 11:48 AM

Interesting lighting for the mineral white plus the wheels on!

hamh · 10-03-2015, 11:56 AM

Done!

Kzang · 10-03-2015, 11:57 AM

Looks good!!!

So much better than those 19"

Doanster · 10-03-2015, 11:58 AM

Nice! Aggressive offset in the rear! That shot on the lift makes the tires look like rubber bands.

It looks great Hamh! I typically don't like back wheels but these look nice... I may go with a more charcoal or gun metal color wheels...

Gunmetal on SG.

Kzang · 10-03-2015, 01:54 PM

Thanks, I'm happy with how it looks, and the wheels are huge, a lot bigger than than my 19"

And also thanks to the guys at Wheeltech they are real professional and did a tremendous job for me.

twelve535i · 10-03-2015, 07:54 PM

I think they're the most aggressive looking F15 wheels I've seen.

Storm trooper! Just slap the black grilles on

Alan l. · 10-03-2015, 09:04 PM

Hot! Those rear wheels looks nice and W I D E.

Thanks! I like it so much but at the same time I'm now driving in high caution mode worrying I might get a flat with the low profile tire
