Ah I see it now.
I’ve seen something similar on the sides, but not that exact style.

I finally put them on last weekend. Seems finally cold enough consistently to warrant them... FINALLY!
I actually don’t mind it... since the winter wheels are a different finish it’s a nice change.

I wasn't sure but that sidewall/shoulder area on the tire in your last pic should've alerted me. You have a sweet winter set up, it's nice having nice wheels for winter duty, although there is something about steelies

I got the winter wheel/tire option with the car... one of the selling points for me :xyxthumbs:
The wheels and tires that come with it are both nice.

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

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

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

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 :xyxthumbs:

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

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.
