I've always loved the classic, BBS-style look of RTRs, but am old-school and just not into black wheels. I was pleasantly surprised that RTR is finally doing them in silver, so I ordered a set.

Coupled with an Eibach Pro-Kit drop, and a little more rubber (275/35-19s all around), the car finally looks the way I want it to look.

Very nice ride...I think the dark RTR's would also look nice with the vert, but very nice none the less.

I like black wheels, but it is refreshing to see some really cool silver ones that aren't all chromed out. Excellent choice, sir.

Thanks for the compliments. I shouldn't have been as negative on dark wheels as perhaps I was, because I think it looks really good in some applications. One thing I do detest is chrome. I grew up with silver alloys, and it's just my personal preference.

That really does look awesome. The satin silver is a welcome addition to the matte black finish.

Thanks for the compliment. I've never had to use anything more aggressive than soap, hot water, and a sponge, but I don't let them get very far gone. For touch ups, I just spritz with water and use a towel.
