You and me both. I've always wanted to have this done on my 166s, but I don't know any local shop who can do this custom job.

Do it guys!! You won't regret it!! Another member got this custom work done @ Mag Masters in Santa Ana, CA. From the pictures I've seen, they do great work.

It took me weeks to find a wheel shop here in Portland that would take on this project and guarantee their work. I'm sure it would be much easier to find in SoCal.

I cant help it, i keep coming back to this post to admire the wheels. Definitely my next purchase. Kaizen, what was the name of the shop in portland and how much did they charge if you dont mind my asking. Im just north of sacramento so the drive to santa ana is one hour less than the drive to portland. I prefer to drive north, more scenic in my opinion.

And hey, I take all my pics using my iPhone, it gets the job done -- well enough
More pics, and one with the Orions that I installed last month. I dunno why the driver side ring looks dull, it certainly doesn't look like that in person. It might just be the angle. Enjoy!

Oh, and do you guys think I need a drop?

I think it looks fine. In the first pic the gap in the front looks bigger than the rears. It could be that the car is on a slope. Coils for the next mod?
