    They are +38 mm (positive) offset, which I believe is "stock" for the narrow Festy OEM rims... so yes, somewhat convex. I won't know exactly the amount of "convexivity" until I put a ruler on 'em. I may end up getting (gulp) spacers to keep the tires from rubbing on the shock towers/springs. We'll see.

    Are those wheels convex? If so, how much?

    I'm picking up a set of 7 spoke silver ICW's tomorrow evening, 14 x 6 with dual bolt pattern. Not gonna tell you the price, b/c somebody would likely stab me with a lug wrench!
    (actual photo of actual wheel: qty 1 each of set of 4, actually...)

    I wish I had some extra money id buy a set of hx wheels just so I could trade you.

    Please tell me you're kidding. Maybe gold centers with a black lip...

    Just got to see all the pics since the comp. at work sucks. I actually do like how they look purple, but think I'll go with gold. Heck, since I've already painted them I can just change the color every week if I want!
    Edit: Oh yeah, thanks for all the photoshops Pr0nst4r!

    Personally, if one was to stick with the daisies, I would leave them as is.

    Yeah theres no way Id completely paint them. Id do spokes only I think.

    I personally don't like painted wheels in these kinds of colors. I think the gold is acceptable though, but Lane will do what he will. I'm just here to show him how bad it will look.

    Gotta be honest. I love the wheels that purple color. Just not with the color your car is now.
    We must have posted at the same time. I like it like that but it needs the chrome ring.
    Heres another challenge for you... Leave the spokes green make the center and outer ring chrome and then make them black
