Got some Chinese 18's from a local salvage yard, wrapped them in some CC2'S. There slightly noisy on dry pavement compared to the perelli's that came with the FX4

They look very orange in the photos but there a little darker in person, might run some lense tint over them to make it a burnt copper color

I bet they'd clear "stock" but they do rub on my mud flaps full lock, it's a little annoying but I hardly make u-turns

I've only heard good things about the Michelin's can't wait to see how they perform in the colorado weather!

Chinese 18's lol. Bruh, I'm ded.

They'll match the rest of the parts that were sent to Mexico to build our FORD ;)
I think there race line 131's, don't see 7 spokes very often but as they say. when in Rome

Edit: I want the 21' Lincoln nautilus blades for the summer

Sorry to say but those colors clash. I'd paint those wheels silver.
They were originally! I really thought they were going to be darker and my OnePlus camera doesn't do much justice... I'll post some pics when I run VHT lens tint over them as a 2nd "clear"

Isn't it strange how camera's are getting "better" on phones but seem to take worse pics now? I upgraded from a Pixel 3A XL to an S21 Ultra and the camera on the Pixel takes much better pictures in every scenario. No settings fix the weirdness of the S21 Ultra's camera. It's like it's compensating too much.

Anyways, look forward to seeing what you are doing ;)

Bought the 18's so I wouldn't be pissed when I curb one of them this or next winter 😭

Above are the 21" nautilus blades I was talking about just need to wait for them to not be $3000+ at a salvage yard
