Now I hate my stock wheels. But we were fooling around in Photoshop and decided to lower it and see how it would look if we got the stock wheels black. To follow the black and gold theme. Now, it's either that or in 6 months to a year I buy some 20" Foose Speedsters.

Option 1:

And well enough people here have Speedsters for you to know what it looks like. While I like the second option much more....the first option is a couple paychecks away.
 
Also, here's how it looks now. If you need a comparison:

I'm seriously thinking about bagging it to, or doing some sort of performance air suspension. I gather with the weight of the car it wouldn't bounce around too much.
 
Hey man, cool idea with the black stock wheels but you know you want the Foose Speedsters. Be patient and save up the cash because you will thank yourself later. I purchased the 18" Foose Speedster package last February after waiting. Unfortunately last week I had to take the Speedsters off and will not be put back on again until late March. I know you know what they look like but take a look at a few pics hopefully they will convince you to wait and buy later. I know a lot of people have 20" Foose Speedsters that is why I wanted to be different and go 18s.

those factory wheels you have there look good in black! I've debated having mine powdercoated black (I have an 03; different style). But I only run mine in the winter so...

Just a thought though; get that unsightly dent on the front fixed before you worry about wheels!

I'm working on that, I was going to get the LSE front.

I'm painting the grille within the next month, it's been on the to-do list.
And I'd really like to save up to get some sort of performance air suspension, slam it when I want and still be able to get over bumps.
