another enkei rpm2 montego pic. (largepic)

I finally made up my mind and bought enkei's from my roommate. they were just to good a deal to pass up.

Pics really don't due the wheels justice they look a lot better in person. overall I am really happy with how it looks and the setup worked very well for last weekends autox.

Where is it you live again? What are your working hours? Do you park outside? Do you have a dog? Are the neighbors very nosy?

NICE very clean looking too. Do you think they will look nicw in a silver FD? I have been considering those but I though they wouldn't look right but you prove me wrong

the car is gorgeous... i love MB paint, but have never really seen any rims that matched it well enough until i first saw those pictures of these rims on your car a few months back. Looks even better now! congrats

Thanks for the comments,

Cheers, the offsets were 35 for the front and 40 on the rear.

as for how they would look on a silver car, i am not sure it would probably look good as well. Wheels are one of those things that
you need to see on the car befor you can really make up your mind.

Thanks,
James

I know this is a little off topic, but do you guys think Konig Reign 18's would look good on a black FC? Oh yeah, your FD looks great
