    it's always been my understanding that the aem bbk required 17 inch wheels... but i could be wrong. i guess i would ask either usc, or bustedlx, as they would know best.

    as far as your current wheels... you're thinking about keeping the bars/spokes the current color (gunmetal/charcoal/black- not sure which one it truly is, lol) and painting the center bronze or gold... or painting all but the lip bronze/gold?!

      yeah the bars /spokes in gold or bronze , and leaving the lip the same of course .. i mean i need your opinion... i might do it asap .. ...yeah i was kinda thinkin the same .. i dont think 16's would work .. but i hope so .. or else ill have to get a spare 17 inch wheel just incase i catch a flat ..

        i think either bronze or gold would work... not sure how good gold from a spray can looks... more than likely it will look like a bright bronze (compared to the bronze that comes on volk te37s or the royal bronze of rota circuits)... but a powder coat would be a different story, and of course much more expensive, lol.

        my thinking is that gold from a spray can won't pop out at you as it would from a powdercoat... maybe a yellow base coat would help the gold pop out... but again, either color would work with the color of your car.

                    the lowest quote i could get for powdercoating was $60 per wheel, and that didn't include repolishing the lip. many places said $100-150 per wheel... so $300 or so really isn't too bad. i'd just say to make sure you've seen the company's work via pictures or in person.

                    yea, been working on panoramic shots over the last week... hopefully the next time we have a shoot, i can put together some good ones... it'll allow for some different possibilities as far as composing/arranging shots.

                    here are some from tonight (don't mind the fact that my car is quite dirty!):

                          it may not make sense... but it does.

                          i really need to sell these 17s for it to be worthwhile... guess i might have to go the ebay route...
