woohoo!!!
my wheels showed up today. and i can't wait to get them on the car. i think they look awesome. i originally wanted to go with the Mesh, but changed my mind when i seen so many other 1st gens with them. it was a toss up between these and the Mesh, and i am extremely happy with the choice. :naughty:
Just wanted to send a big thanks out to Tim at PRRC and Zak at Boze for hooking me up with these.
so, not that it really matters, but what does everyone think.

Nice! Can't wait to see them on!
I like the black matte finish. It gives it sort of a sinister look.

i hope to get them mounted this week sometime and maybe get them on the car sometime next week. she'll look a little funny, since there's no motor in yet, but maybe i can get someone to do a little altitude adjustment for me with photochop or something.

Nice looking wheels! I always love wheels that have more of a pro-touring competition look to them than the "bling" you see on some posers cars.
Agreed that those wheels will set you apart a bit from a lot of the folks with Mesh style wheels, good choice! Gotta love the satin finish, hides the brake dust that much better!
BTW what size are those 18"??? Hard to tell without much to compare them agaisnt.

finally got a chance to get them mounted. unfortunately the guy that was mounting them put a nice long scratch in one of the rear wheels:banghead: the fronts are 18x8 and 18x9 rears with 245/40 and 275/40. the centers are satin black with the polished hoop. there's no motor or trans in yet, so the front end should come down a bit once she's together. the rear is still the stock 10bolt with drums. i have a disk brake setup for the 12 bolt that i just got, just haven't had the chance to put it in yet. these pics were taken the day i got the wheels mounted. i didn't have a chance to put my brakes on yet. i also ordered the "smoke" glass kit from GP superstore, which i think will look pretty killer with everything else.
