    CT5-V Stealth PPF on aCT5-V Blackwing - Walk Around Video. Black Raven.

    you can absolutely ceramic coat Expel stealth or STEK DYNOmatt....Thats a rumor that I will absolutely call 100% bullcrap on....I do it quite often at my shop...it doesn't change the look of the film at all. This car has STEK DYNOmatt with CQuartz Skin on top of it.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    they're AL13 R-60's in polished torque grey center with polished outer barrels.....and I'd really rather you didn't try to have sex with my car as it's still a virgin.

    Thank you David! I really appreciate it. Can't wait to see yours (I'm sure you can't wait either).

    no +12mm so only moved out 8mm...sorry if I screwed that up. I'm running EVS titanium lug nuts with burnt tips...you really can't see them anyways because the lug pockets are so deep in the front

    Wheel technical question

    honestly on my 20" wheels there isn't much room between the E-brake caliper and the inner hardware on my 3pc wheels...it was a little scary when I saw it for the first time. obviously this is a non issue on a mono block style wheel. But I can see where if a manufacturer had a stepped inner...

    Wheel technical question

    38mm might be too far outward...maybe if you move down to a 295 or 285 rear tire it would work.

    May 27 2022 (day 112) Last wheel showed up and I got the tire mounted.....then we mounted the wheels and prayed that the front fitment would work without trashing the front fenders when aired out. ultimately I chose to go with a 20x10 -12mm front wheel with 285/30/20 tires. The fitment literally...

    HRE wheels - lowering options?

    You can find the wheels on AL13’s website. As far as size goes they’re 20x10 fronts and 20x11 rears

    HRE wheels - lowering options?

    should have the fourth one back from AL13 tomorrow then we are going to ceramic coat them so most likely Monday or Tuesday I'll be mounting them at work and checking the fitment with the car on jack stands hoping they clear the fenders with the bags aired out....dont want to air out and fuck up...

    Wheel technical question

    Damn, that sucks...how wide of a spacer are you planning to try? there isn't much extra space in the rear having already lost 7MM if you add 3MM spacers that'll take you out to a total of 10MM further out than stock...I'd imagine you may rub the fenders then. Thats about 3/8 of an inch further...

    Price varies depending on wheel style and finish options. They are in the HRE ballpark generally speaking though.

    That would have looked cool but it wasn’t offered and I didn’t even think about it until after we had ordered them. I have titanium lugs with burnt blue tops so maybe that will provide some more contrast

    I'm fortunate enough to live in Southern California where it rarely rains and I have a Tesla for a commuter so the BW doesn't leave the garage when there is questionable weather.

    May 19, 2022 (day 104) The wheels finally showed up a couple of weeks late and not without problems. had to send one back because the finish was less than perfect but they assured me that I'd have it back in about a week. Overall I'm super happy with the design and how the finish turned out...
