I totally agree. The stock wheels don't bother me at all.

Frs86...nice work on the wheels though. They look pretty damn sweet.

Thanks for all the feedback and comments!

I was just curious to see the wheels in a solid color and im pretty happy about the way they came out... I've gotten alot of compliments about how much better they look in person. Ill try and have some better shots taken this week. all these were from my iphone

A have a Raven, I'm getting a quote from a local powder coater. I like the look.

EDIT - Never mind I went to your link. They're painted. I think I'd like powder better, for more shine.

It looks so much better. Still not my preferred wheel, but that two-tone really is a deal-breaker for me personally. Great improvement.

Nice improvement! The stock wheels are growing on me a little bit when I see them everyday. That said, I have Enkei RPF1's on order.

I do like them, although I would debate it looks "better" since I like the factory ones as is. Great option for those that don't like them though.

I really like the stock wheels on the dark gray, but not so much one some of the other colors. I think the all-silver definitely looks better on the red car.

I too dislike the two tone wheels.

This is the colour I'm hoping to do once I get mine.
