Well as some of you know i picked up some SVT rims for the Focus

Heres what they started as:

1 had a decent gouge in the lip, so i was able to find another one in very nice condition

Next step was to sandblast them, HUGE thanks to my work for letting me use our sandblast cabnit

I had those tires on my Acura - I liked 'em! I even have the Sumitomo HTR+ on the stock wheels now - not bad for an all-season!
