Default Couple of Moonlight Pics Before These Wheels Go Bye Bye
Tough to see the depth of the Cygnus wheels unless you see them at night.

Beautiful pictures! What are you changing to? I might have missed that info on another thread, if so, sorry!

I got the opportunity to see this car in person last night and the pics just don't do her justice! Thanks again Jeremy, I'll be in touch.

I'm working on something a little different and more aggressive with a tie back to a previous favorite set of wheels. These will go back under the house with the other half dozen sets of wheels for both my cars

I'm wanting to change the wheels on my XKR. But that is as far as I've got. Just thinking about it.

These rims look perfect to me! Also like the rear plinth and leaper in the back.

Just curious if this is the original paint or custom? Also, how do you get that nice wet look?

I clay bar'd it and used ICE wax recently. The purist in me would cringe at the thought of a Turtle Wax product and I have had $200+ waxes over the years, but this gives me better results.

good series of pics, these rims look 'tame' compared to your other ones.
