These the BCracing ones? Looks good

Spence/855 T5-R W/RN SwapS/NWC

They (VS) wax their cars? I thought the lastest craze was to wrap them in viynl so the paint is flat. At least thats what won the IPD show.

Thanks for the nice comments guys, really appreciate it. I'll take better pics soon (with a better cam) after the car is nice is clean. Yup, 19s. I have another set of 19s that look like bbs lm-r's....gna have them painted, still deciding on the color. M thinking gold or brown center, leaving the lip silver, any thoughts?

Gold might not be the best on your paint code IMHO...but brown would be pretty killer.
