Wow top build mate!! I understand getting rid of the fr’s but noticed you are thinking of going gold rims. Gold goes quite well with blue. Have gold fr’s om my blue vs ute. Makes the colour pop so much better than silver. End of the day if you dont like them gold can always change the colour.

Thanks mate yeah im still 50/50 on the gold its ill have to make a decision soon any pics of your ute

Ive got to put an order  in but i want to get the  car on the road first

[capssyParticipant Pro touring calais View build HERE Member since: March 1, 2015 Posts: 178]

Didnt realize  they went that big now but i still prefer  the forgelines  i just like the track car stance they give as opposed  to the oms  more of a show street  wheel  the forgelines  are also a bit lighter simmons have allways  been a heavy wheel but thanks for the link i think ive sold myself  on the forgelines  tho

[capssyParticipant Pro touring calais View build HERE Member since: March 1, 2015 Posts: 178]

Also considering making  a strut brace like the one pictured  ive got the dimple dies just need to order the alloy any thoughts

And on the oms i do like them but biggest  the go is an 18 won’t  clear  my brakes and im really  digging the step dish on the forgelines

[capssyParticipant Pro touring calais View build HERE Member since: March 1, 2015 Posts: 178]

Im thinking  the forgelines  at the moment  nice looking wheel  just need to pick up some overtime to pay for them haha selling  the frs should  offset  the  cost a little but im not sure what id get for them with the one piece versions  now if i could get 3 k id be happy  never been driven  on yet

[capssyParticipant Pro touring calais View build HERE Member since: March 1, 2015 Posts: 178]
