Very nice. Makes me wish I would have never sold my (new in box) complete set of silver BBS RK wheels. I always wanted to get them sprayed gun metal grey but I never had the money or time. BTW, I think the clear film behind the rear tires on that Mystic (you know the #M clear bra stuff) makes a lot of sense. With paint that pricey it's a must to have protection from day one... ! :rockon:

maybe someone can help me. SSP. found out the following info.

Rear Rims - 20mm

Front Rims - 25mm

Im about to order brakes for my car but i kinda want to go bigger than the 03 cobra brakes so here is my question. I dont think anyone has ran the wilwood 6 piston yet and it looks to be skinnier than the brembo Cobra R's. here is link to specs of the brake kit. on the bottom of the link is a PDF file that shows a detailed diagram of how fat it is. will it clear???

I really doubt it. It's not all about the offset, but the design of the spokes. My Work Emotion CR Kai wheels were +20, but the spokes bowed out and there was a ton of space for bigger brakes. The RK's have less than a quarter inch between the caliper and the spokes. I wouldn't buy the brakes without finding the exact specs and comparing them to stock brakes.

Looking at the drawing, I'd still say it's too big, but I'd have to take a closer look at my brakes.

Do you guys wanting the bigger brake kits actually road race your car? My reason is because I plan to do SCCA Time Trials, but if your not road racing the car you don't need a bigger brake kit. Get the brake duct cooling kit, some stainless steel lines and performace brake pads you'll be fine for anything but competive racing.
