22 mm VS original 12 mm makes a sweet difference!

Not this week, but recently:
18" satin black pegs with Michelin Primacy MXV4 225/55
Load bars

How do the black wheels handle brake dust?

edit: is your car lava sand?

Nice Skater. Those 55s and larger pegs really help to fill the XC's wheel wells.

I have only had the wheels on for about 1500kms, and haven't noticed any brake dust yet. They do get dirty quickly though, and there is a strip about 1" wide just behind the spokes where dirt accumulates, so there ends up being a sand colored stripe that is quite noticeable.

Next step is S60 springs.

Yes, lava sand.

That's a good lookin' rig you've got. I like the color.

Skater, very very nice, but it NEEDS a spoiler

Thanks for the compliment.
Personally, I don't like the spoiler. I feel the profile of the xc70 already looks like it is "leaning" back, like the body is trying to catch up to the wheels. To me the spoiler exagerates that look.
