Just got the pics of my Strasse Forged CF

**RobD** · 05-04-2012, 20:50

Its been a long wait but I just received the final pics of my wheel build. 18/19 Strasse SM8's CF face with brushed lip. They should be delivered next week. They're going on my 05 Silverstone...just waiting on Ravi's kit to do the install on the VRH.

Thanks Guys!!! I hang with Arista5 and his 05 Imola/Onyx...so I have to go Balller to keep up!!!

Boy did I struggle with what lip finish to go with!!! I drove the guy CRAZY!!! I started with chrome and chrome hardware but then I thought with the chrome lip...carbon fiber face....gold calipers...way to much going on...too much baller! I didnt want the lip to compete against the CF face.
I'll post pics after the VRH install, DF CF Diffuser install, DF CF Lip install.
I cant wait!!!

I think the CF is cool but from a few feet away it's just going to look like a standard black wheel, isn't it? I'm glad you went brushed and not chrome. This wheel has a lot of nice detail but I'm afraid you'll have to look really close to see it.

All I can say is; "Pure sex."

They look very nice. Enjoy them.

Love the wheels, had them
With a berlina lip the carbon is bright enough to stand out a little bit, especially in lighting. Good choice! They will look hot on silverstone!

Awesome!!! Can't wait to see it!

EXACTLY!!!! I'm really looking for this 05 to be more of a show car...I'm hoping at first glance people will think...oh another black wheel...ehhh...then when you look a little closer...NICE!!! Carbon Fiber!

PS-First time I saw the wheels were on the Source1 Car!

totally love the styling on these wheels, reminiscent of racing hart c2/c4; one of my all time fav wheels from the F&F era.

**Blacknot** · 05-05-2012, 15:53

I cant wait to see pics. That wheel is sick

**socold57** · 05-05-2012, 17:13

**IsR** · 05-05-2012, 19:58

Nice! Can't wait for the picture of the wheel mounted.

**Dynamic-uzed-auto** · 05-05-2012, 21:46

Holy mother of god, we gonna have an awesome summer for sure

**Zishan** · 05-06-2012, 08:10

Strasse wheels are quality wheels. You're gonna love them!

Post pics once they're installed.
