    Sweet wagon love the wheels and it looks great sitting that low. Got the Kicker L7 sub as well they're powerful! Especially in a wagon one of them would blow you away!

    what vy wheels are they mate? they look killer.
    i can't help but think they are vz ssz wheels, but that just might be because they are black hence they look different.

    okay, just to put everyone's mind at ease. The rims are SSZ painted gloss black. which are exactly the same shape as VZ CV8 just without the 'CV8Z' engraving. sorry about all the confusion guys. i wasnt even sure myself
