Thx Roger....
They are the same as the summers but 18s and obviously a different finish.
Tires are Michelin Pilot Alpins

Re: DK News
Hey Monica, I was thinking, if you wanted some RS decal overlays I could have them made for, not too much money either. I just need the diameter. They could have a black background, close to that blue for the RS and maybe a silver trim around the RS to mimic the oem badges in the front and back. I know they're trimmed in chrome but I don't think that's an option but I could ask. Chrome tends to fade over time with vinyl. You could always do the RS in a solid blue too, whatever you want.
Just passing it along

Re: DK News
Thx Roger, I will keep that in mind. So far I like the emblems as-is.

I don't mean to be so nosey about these things but a couple of my "suggestions" have netted my buddy some business AND made people very happy with a little, custom touch.
This summer, while at the Iron Gate car condo C&C, a couple came in with a stunning stage 3 Roush Mustang. It had it's factory stripes, matte gray with subtle red trim. I noticed the wheels had an engraved R on the centercaps and thought it would look cool if that were red to tie in the subtle red trim, they agreed and said "but where do I get that done at?" I directed them to Xtreme and on the way out they said they were heading straight there.
I actually stopped there later and they did stop in and have that little mod done and my buddy thanked me and said they were very happy!
This only works on flat surfaces and maybe those Ford logos are slightly raised. If they are smooth maybe you'll get a Hanukkah gift from yours truely

Re: DK News
Oh I get where you are coming from.
I’ve considered getting inlays for them but decided I like the RS “blue” for now.
If I decide to change things up I think it will work... the emblems are flat on the inside of the chrome trim.
Honestly the car still seems so new so I’m enjoying it as Ford made it for now
I also appreciate you trying to help your buddies out. I like going with local shops

Aaaaaaaaah gotcha.
Well that is an idea. I’ve been thinking of getting different ones.....
I just checked and they are slightly domed.

Re: DK News
Well, as long as it's smooth it doesn't matter. Next time your out there get me a measurement. Either inches or mm's, whichever is easier and moist accurate

Yup, they are smooth.
Just measured- they are 2.125" diameter.
