What the hell is this guy talking about? The rears are clear? This is like the third thread you've posted nonsensical jibberish in.

I must be seeing something no one else is. I see black rims on the front right? What are those big shiny things I see inside the tire on the rear. I don't see a matching black rim. Sorry.

It's called a polished lip. The outside of the rim is polished and the center section is recessed and black. The center star is black anodized just like the fronts.

And does the large polished "lip" match the one on the front? No. BTW, what do they spray on that "lip" to keep it nice and shiny? Would it be clear?

mismatched wheels? Maybe hes one of those old guys who needs glasses. The front wheels arent supposed to have a huge polished lip.

Yea, I run 10" wheels with 6.5 bs also but I was saying its nice that the new alumastars come the correct BS because the old ones you couldnt get it. At least I believe you couldn't?

If you don't think a black notch with black alumastars is the most amazing looking thing on the planet then your opinion doesn't mean **** anyway. Period.

Baddest looking car on Stangnet, hands down. Although it would probably look better with 10" alumastars on the front so the lips match
