Dude do that with the 99/00 style too and see what they look like too!


Now they just need to make that in a 20 inch or 22inch and chrome it and I'm all over it!

It looks much better, but it still looks like a Dakota wheel to me. Ford used to make really nice wheels on their special edition vehicles. They must have new people designing these wheels. There is a reason my stock 01 rims are collecting dust in the basement .

I like how you put peices of the brake rotor in the holes.

Thats one hell of a photoshop job

Hmmmm - I see the similarity now. BMW sure has some nice factory wheels (unlike Ford). Too bad BMW can't design cars anymore (the new 7 series is fugly, and the upcoming 6 series, 5 series, and Z4 are hideous! GAG!)

The riciest part of that car is that the Roundels double as side markers.

LOL - to me it also looks like someone kicked in the door and put those nice creases in the metal panels. Way too many angular corners and edges in this new design - the Z3 had better-flowing lines that will remain classic...

Back on topic, maybe it's time to try 2003 Lightning wheel 3.0?

Thumbs down

Just the first image (no holes in spokes). Disappointing, huh?
