Pics of 18" CCW wheels and 18" Volk GTP's on FD?

I need some pictures of CCW wheels and 18" GTP's on an FD. I am 98% sure I am going with Volks from Rishie but I need some pics of the CCW's because they are the same price. Thanks.

Cant go wrong w/ either!

Im leaning towards the CCW's now too! I just got off the phone w/ John...real nice guy who knows his ****. He talked me into (9's for the front and 9.5 or 10's out back). Im sticking w/ the 17'ers as Im not in competition and dont need that extreme a wheel.....IMO, 18's will be too bone jarring for street use and more likely to bend on a crater encounter than the 17'er.

Keep in mind that my pics are of the "track" version of the CCW wheels. If you want the "street" version, you'll get center caps and more attractive hardware.

I have purchased wheels from both CCW and Rishie -- both were good buying experiences.

Can you really get custom colors like that? how much extra would they charge?

I was on the phone w/ John earlier today and to answer ur question YES.

The only color available at this time is a matte black or charcoal. And its not painted on he anodizes it. He might be able to do whatever color I dunno I didnt ask but when I asked what finishes are available those were the two....The VERY COOL thing about John is he doesnt charge you any BS fees.....he told me it the same price for ANY of the 3 finishes, the 3rd being polished.
