    Huge thanks to my good friend Adam for the wheels! They are 5Zigen D-Force in 17". They are so much lighter than my 18s are by almost 5 full pounds per wheel :eek:

    I am going to have them blasted this winter and painted Dark Silver to match the car :)

    Very nice, but then I'm partial to that 6-spoke look.

    Was thinking the same, they look great to me without matching, plus it's not like they're chrome or polished. I think I would at least live with them for a couple months before deciding whether they need a paint job, but it's all about personal preference.
