OK, I just did a lousy photoshop job but it will give you more of an idea. This is the same car as mine with the same color combo and body kit etc.

If it has to be one of those two then I would definately pick the formulas from techart. The other ones just look a tad to pointy or "edgy" for my tastes. Theres my 2 cent. However, IMO the formulas look kinda similar to the twists you have without the twist. lol So, If you are looking for something drastic maybe the technos would be better.

Placed my order for the Techno's with 4 new tires!

They'll be here next week.

I'll post some shots when they're mounted. Anyone want my 18" Turbo Twists with tires?

Congrats on your purchase. What kind of shape are your twists in?

They're awesome! I'd give them a 95/100, but they look great. I just don't think they compliment my side skirts well. They have the Continental tires with about 65-70% tread life remaining and 225/40/18 in the front and 265/35/18 in the rear. As you can tell from my posts here, I never abuse the car or peel them out. I drive it here and there when it's nice out and have not really taken it out for a drive in a few months with the snow here. I have a few other cars I use for the winter. I'd like to get rid of them this week before the new ones come as I don't have the room for a big set of wheels to be laying around.

I doubt it. I put it on two forums last night and I have 4 emails with offers.
