This is one of the reasons why I love this color- the color changes in the sun so drastically! Love it!

Damn, loving all the sunny shots. Shows the finish of the wheel in a lot of different lighting

You'd say the hyper would look good on a Rio?

AutoX wheels with 295s. The 315s are on order!
When we get a bit more testing completed we will put some paint on. I'm still trying to sort out what color I want.

Thanks. I used to try to never shoot in direct light because the color sort of washes out, but if you can get it just right it shows all the different hues because of the pearl.

Thanks. I would say the hyper would look amazing on Rio. I think Hyper would look good on most color S2K's , but especially on the brighter colors because its such a good contrast.

I've been waiting for over a year to post in this thread. Today is finally the day that that happens!

Here are a few pics of my progress over the past couple of weeks. I'm so happy to finally have these wheels and tires on the S after sitting on them for nearly a year.

Fresh from sandblasting

yeah, I got a call from a friend and all he said was, "949's, R&C forum, jump on them."
I dropped whatever I was doing and got on there and PM'ed the guy.
I was pretty damn lucky to get this set although I'm still trying to figure out why he spray painted them matte black right out of the box instead of keeping the original bronze finish.
