Bronze or gold FTW! Bronze is dark enough to still be "stealthy", Gold has little more "pop", and different to stand out.

Give High End a call and ask for Ben, Brian, or Jun. Get them to special order you a black set if you want them that badly.

I personally like black without the machine lip better... but to each his own... the more I stare at these the more I want them!

well actually I might get the silver and powdercoat them another color. No one offers the black in a +35 offset since they are not made that way for that color. So now I am thinking that I will go with the cheapest RPF1's and then spend $20 bucks on the powder and powdercoat them the color of my choice.... now what color to coat???

I can go with either a gunmetal, black chrome, or other. I want to stay in the darker color area if not black, so what are your suggestions???

yes I do plan on running a pretty wide tire, probably a 235 or so, I haven't thought about it too much. Even if I do run that wide of a tire, +35 should be fine right???
