Craig,
That's a nice match between the wheel finish and body color. Looks real sharp to me!

As you should be...looks awesome!
That is the perfect match between the wheel color and your paint,it that a brushed & cleared center...I can't quite be certain from the pics?

Thanks Guys.....
It is a smoked titanium center and polished lips. 18's in Front and 19's in the back. 235/40/18 in Front and 275/35/19 in the back. The tires are Nitto NEOGEN. Jon at Driverzinc can hook you up with the correct sizes, offsets, etc.
The paint was suggested by Jason when we were talking about wheel designs for the car. It is Ferrari's Azurro California Blue. It really came out nice and the car looks totally different depending on the lighting.

I have some, but there is no engine in it yet. Here are a couple after paint with old wheels, suspension, etc. Going to be awhile before it is street ready as I work on it as time permits.

OK...smoked titanium,you'd think I'd know that.
Nice contrast against the polished hoops and of course,they set off that light blue paint perfectly.:cheers:
That car sure looks different from the first time you contacted me about drawing it up! Lots of time and work there and it shows, Craig! Thanks for running our wheels and the trust on the colors! Looks great, now get it out of the garage and get us some nice photos for the website!
Keep up the good work!

Great Choice on your wheels. Looks one of a kind on your ride. I just sent in my final payment to Jim at Paradise for my set of Rushforths. After looking at your wheels I am not sure if I should have gone with smoked centers. I've decided on Super Spokes 18" brushed and cleared centers with polished hoops. I'll attach a couple pics of my ride. I am open to suggestions to all that are listening. Thanks Will

Here are some new pics with the car on the ground and the suspension installed but not finished. I am pretty happy with the overall height in the back. Anxious to see how low it is once I get the motor/tranny in it.

The back looks real good. Put up some more pics after everything is installed so we can see how the front end settles. Looks great though!
That thing has come a LONG way since you contacted us the first time, Craig! Keep the updates coming and keep up the great work!!

Looking great Craig! Looks like the suspension and the wheel fitment is right on. Keep us updated....
