thanks axsys.... im debating... gold wheels with black calipers

guess what tears me between the two is if i wanna steer a away for my original design...

but i think gold rims would look awesome though

that's an old vfr rim with solid rotors that are not as large in dia as the f4i. they won't line up in the calipers.

after what weasol said i made a mock up set up.... USING the vfr axle spacers...i believe the older vfr wheel will work fine as long as i add some washers to center the caliper on the disk....

ill post some pics in a few...
