Finally... all black rims, no more bling.
Sorry for the shitty pictures... my blackberry isnt exactly the best. 17x9 Black Rhino Imperial's in matte black. with the old rubbers... 35/12.5/17

I also decranked the torsion bars and went up on my belltechs a bit to lower the rear down to match. The front was fully cranked before and the ride was aweful not to mention the angle on the cv's so now the cv angles are at the most 30 degrees and got a softer ride back...i loved the jacked up look of cranking them way up, but the ride was brutal on the suspension.


BEFORE PICS...maxxed bars, and the old flashy Eagle Alloy's






AFTER PICS... lowered about 1 1/4" with the new black rhino's

I always wished my DWB was that color combo.
