Hey Mike,

Despite what I though originally I think I actually like it. It makes me think of Kent's ute. For most of us there comes a point where practicality wins out.

The rims are SOLD lol... put them on ebay this morning and 30 mins later they sold...

All my mates and you people saying they looked sh*t hehe and its going to be a hassle to get them powder coated and chasing up bits and pieces.. If I find a set already silver, already with tyres I might get them again in the future, made a lil profit in the sale also I might add, so its win win..

Maybe ill just buy a VLT and be done with it hahaha..

Well, getting back to this.. I found a set on ebay with tyres for a good price, I picked them up yesterday morning and bought some paint and painted them silver, fitted them up today.

Looks fairly tough IMO, a lot of people that said it would look sh*t now say it looks alright.. I like them, but can't see them staying on for long, I have a feeling they are gonna attract the wrong kind of attention, so no HWY with these... I can say goodbye to grip now, the wheels are 16's and are 6.5" wide lol.. they just clear the brakes. 1/4 to 1/2 throttle and it chirps into second, haven't driven in the wet yet, but I'm scared lol...

I think its got to do with the iPhone I use to take the pics and I'm on a Mac, so everything it the right way up even though I may have taken the pics upside down? So when I upload them they come out upside down?

Mac FTW!!!
