Dude....that is really cool how the letters are white walled on the tires. I mean, I never really liked the white wall tires or anything like that. But, THAT looks great! I dunno how it's going to work out for me, but now that I've seen that, I'm keeping it in mind!

Can you inverse the color on the spokes, In otherwords make the spokes the normal satin finish but make the rim black? Sort of like the spokes are floating!

Let me see if i can find an example...

Like these in this guys siggy....

Yeah, I should be able to...I'm at work right now, so I won't get to it until later tonight, but I should be able to do so.

Thanks for the comments everyone! I wasn't sure how the RWL would look on the tires. While I've always though older muscle cars look great with them, most modern cars don't. I'm still kinda on the fence about how it looks on the 5th-Gen, but it looks better than I expected and I wanted to at least see how it looked

It reminds me very strongly of a stockcar (NASCAR)...the lowness, and the lack of wheel-to-well gap....

Kyle2k, a Black with white stripes!! (Or the Skunk paintjob...as I like to call it. )
I saw an airial view of a '69 Camaro with this paintjob in a videogame...and it's been the 'skunk' ever since.

And 17ac, how about one step better than "kind of like carbon fiber"...how about just like Carbon Fiber??

like the first one better...the second is done really well, don't get me wrong. But, I just like the black spokes w/ silver on the outside. Great chops, though!!!

Totally dig the RWL

As you can see, I've always been a fan of white lettered tires, and now I TOTALLY am going to do this with my new 5th gen as well. That looks REALLY good... even better than I imagined!

Oh, an can you get ride of that stinking trailer hitch while your at it! It's very distracting!

Keep up the good chopping!
