    I'm not a major fan of landau roofs in general, but the combination of blue and white is really nice. I'm torn between whether I like the current wheels or the gold Daytons better.

    I agree, I was thinking 20inch chrome Daytons with the most meaty low profile tires you can mount. Yeah, I let the East Hialeah (Miami) come out of me on this one. Ssshhhh maybe even chrome 22z 150 spoke 245/35/22. Still a nice/classy GMQ especially with that blue w/white top. Im digging the urban back drop

    Thanks guys! Loved the daytons but they the front would rub the top of the fenders over bumps and I ended up cracking one knock off so they came back off. I love the look of daytons and wire wheels. This one is a Miami local
