Default CTR Gunmetal wheels put in today

Even since I spotted these from a link posted here months ago I wanted them on my car. So, after a very generous tax return, here they are.

The new tires are Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s 265/35 18 in the front, 275/40 18 in the back. I originally wanted Pirelli Ferro Rossos but there were none to be found in stock in San Diego. I'm not complaining about these Michelins though, I know they are top quality tires.

These wheels most definitely look their best in a two tone scheme, I have only seem them on cars in chrome which didn't really do much for them. But on a black car with gun metal they are simply awesome.

I like 'em. Remind me of the Ford GT rims. Now you just need to lower it

HaHa, go figure... I click on the link and it says "designed to replicate the Ford GT rims"

Yes I know, when you get fat rear wheels, the gaps in between the wheels and the body seem to get larger even though they aren't.

I have a 3D carbon ducktail spoiler coming in on monday and I pick up my custom license plates on wednesday. Tax returns are nice!

I like them. I think I'd like to have the black with the polished edge. Still looks sweet though.

I like them but it definitely needs to be lowered.

It definitely doesn't help the appearance of the car that I parked it on the incline of my driveway. lol
