Sneaks gets ANOTHER set of shoes
 
Well, I posted up the Ruff 278's I had been looking for for some time. They're gone. Luke(liveaboard74) came to pick up my chrome C6's, and liked the Ruffs so much we struck a deal. I put them on his MY coupe, and away my new wheels went. :D
What to do, what to do? They don't make the 278's anymore, so I needed to choose something else. I really liked the MRR GT5 wheel that Dennis at DD Mods posted he was vending last year. So, I called him up,and ordered a 19/19 set up. 8.5 fronts(2 inch lip) 9.5 rears(3 inch lip). Talked to him for about 35 minutes. Great guy to talk to! :thumbs:
Here's a few shots from last night after I installed them:

And a couple from this afternoon at the golf course,after the suspension settled back down:

I really like the look, and especially like the black painted barrells. Much easier to keep clean. Gotta thank Dennis for getting them to me fast. Great guy to deal with. :thumbs:
What do you guys and gals think?
