Yep, yep. They're still doing great, and I still have the Falkens on them. (I drive w/ the gold wheels like 5% of the time, usually to and from a track day or autocross.)

PS: How did you paint them? A bunch of people asked me, and I have no idea...

BUMP! i was really hoping to see some BCP with black/polished lip.

also, how does one go about actually POLISHING the lip, and not just keeping it silver, can it be done?

Gold...I'm biased though. I ran bronze before and didn't like it. Not enough pop. Depends when you're looking for though. I was testing so that I had an idea of what to go with when i got my rims
