so can anyne do the photo shop? i want to move forward and test these hub adapters for our Vs but dont want to move forward with it until ive decided on a rim, and need to see these! the picture of the black set on the 300C in the OP should be easy to PS on a silver V. chrome or black doesnt matter. doesnt have to be good, just an idea

Re: Dropstar DS05 Chrome On V

not to be negative nancy here....but I don't think you are going to get someone to do it becuase most here don't like the rims....
too much bling...and too heavy

find something they like as a whole (lightweight and staggered) and they will photoshop the sh!t out of it.....just say'n

So ill need a set of wheels in 5x114.3 to test out the adapters.
Mike, can you share some specs on the adapter? I thought about doing this a while back, but as soon as I drew up the bolt patterns... I couldn't make it work

Here is the pic I posed of the adapter to better show what I mean.
