king spring supers all round, did have ultras in the rear but i prefer the supers so it has room to squat on hard launches

just a few chops to show what i have planned looks wise, unfortunately the wheels will be the cheapest part of the caprice's next stage, plan is for FR20x8.5 fronts, and FR22x10 rears minimum depending what i can fit with tubs, only colour i didnt get a chop of is gold with polished lip which i was leaning more towards, what do you guys reckon look better out of WHITE, BLACK, CHERRY BLACK or CHROME

personally im kinda leaning towards the full chrome look, but rich is doing a gold with polished lip chop for me tonight so ill see how i like the look of that
