Turbo kit is sold so I have some cash and I already have the tires, so I need some 18" wheels to fit.



To go with Montego Blue. I'm leaning towards the white myself, it would be quite distinctive.





The gold is really only up there to fulfill the soylent option requirement.

Eh, even though gold is up there as kind of a joke, I like the looks of them with blue cars. White would be my second choice.

IMO white would draw too much attention to the wheels.

hehehe, I went with the white! Since it will be easy to notice the brake dust I'll probably do a better job of keeping them clean.



I'll post some pics when they arrive and we'll see how they look.

Apparently it's like pulling teeth to get anything non-stock out of Enkei USA. I've decided on something else.

when my car was montego blue.... i was always thinking of getting gold or bronze rims.



i always thought that the gold/bronze would compliment the mostly green color of the car.



the gold emblems that came with my car influenced those thoughts.
