what do you think? what sucks is i saw mark8murders post last week and it got me mad, not because he did it, but because he did it before me lol, but, i did order mine on saturday march 12th so i couldnt control how fast they got to me, but the wheels are new, tires are on. so far alot of people in my daily life said they like the red pinstripe on the wheel, i like the red, my wife said she is unsure, i like it as is so let me know what you think. the tires are hankook ventus v-12 EVO's fronts are 245-40 and rear are 275-40

I like the wheels, but to me, the red calipers add a bit too much red.

What's that green stuff under your car?:D

I don't know about the redline.From the back it looks good because it blends in with the rear lights.Maybe it is the caliper being red also_Once you paint them black maybe the redline won't be as much.

Beside that.Still looks nice.

I think I like the red stripe, but I agree the chrome around windows has to change, probably. Looks good though

Looks good Jamie. Keep the stripe, it makes it unique. I say keep the calipers too, otherwise the red stripe won't be enough red to justify having any red at all.

CopyCat LOL! Your ride is clean, keep the red calipers and the red stripe. That thing looks sick. Do some red valve covers in the engine bay too!

Looks great man, keep up the good work!

Looks good, did you get the rear tail light trim from an LSC or paint it?
All his are LSC's I think. He wouldn't do any less, lol.

I thought the lsc's did not have chrome on the windows.

Yep, LSCs have chrome around the windows.

The red stripe says Hot Wheels or Matchbox to me, but it does look pretty cool!

all mark VIII's have the chrome around the windows, i wouldnt own a base mark, only lsc's for me. i got an idea from another member, he says maybe i should just paint the caliper brackets black, but leave the actual caliper red, i like that idea, if i do it, i will give credit to him!! and no, my tint is not legal, but i could care less, i care so little, that i actually have my entire windshield tinted too. tint is 5% everywhere except the windshield, that is 50%. and as far as your comment mark8murder, my ported and polished intake is at powder right now, they did it tonight, its gloss black, the valve covers will be done tomorrow, those are going wrinkle finish red, this whole scheme has been in my head for a long time!! i cant put the stuff on this weekend though i promised my son i would take him to our friday night cruise show, and our saturday night cruise at dairy queen in lutz fl, and sunday i will be out in the gulf of mexico on a yacht for a wedding getting tanked and dancing like a retard with my beautiful wife!
