Ghost Shadow Posted September 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Car looks good with the wheels! How did you get them for that price?I think somebody at MHT isn't being very truthful with you, the 19" Foose DF-5s are readily available in chrome. As a matter fact, MHT just sent me a set of the same 19" chrome Df-5s under warranty to replace my 19" Niche Rhines, because 1 of my wheels cracked and the Rhines are no longer in production. Until I just saw them on your car, I was actually contemplating selling them and getting something else because I wasn't sure how they would look. I am rethinking that now.With the 45mm offset what size spacers did you use?at the time when i got the wheels they were the last set in the us. they may have gotten more in on that bolt pattern.price = i am a mht dealerspacers? why do i need them?also right now stock of the df5's in chrome is 7pcs in the us in the cali warehouse. i just ordered a spare wheel.

I acutally wanted 19" Dub Dirty Dogs, but at the time when my regular rep at MHT was helping me with the warranty on my wheels, they didn't have them available in our lug pattern. I am still considering selling the DF-5s, if I can locate a set of the 19" Dirty Dogs. The Df-5s are still sitting in their boxes in my garage.I had test fitted one of the wheels on the front of the V70, between the 45mm offset, 8.5" width and how low I sit, they sat too far in. I know on the front I will need at least a 10mm spacer just avoid rubbing to much when turning at full lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the look without the center accent, but you would see the mounting hole without it there. I think I am going to have the black accents painted color-matched to the car.

I think I am going to have the black accents painted color-matched to the car.the chrome accents on chrome wheels looks too busy. used the black accents because it looks like it is a split spoke 5 star wheel. IMO = looks better. now white accents to match your car may look nice, we'll just have to wait and see. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S60RDUDE Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Any performance mods?Props for having fat tires - i wish I could fit something like that in my car. I suggest a front lip - I saw someone on this forum added an PH2 S40 (01-04) front lip onto his C70 vert and it looks kickassDuh he said ST 17PSI, and I consider end links a performance Mod as well as the suspension.
