Here is C.J. Watson, the speedy back up point guard of the Chicago Bulls standing in front of his 2008 GMC Denali. You might have heard his name in the news recently for dating Floyd Mayweather’s girl Josie Harris. But we are here to talk about his car and only his car. He had all the customization done over at California Wheels in San Jose while he was playing with the Golden State Warriors.

The wheels are all black 2-piece 24″ Giannelle Barcelonas on 285/40/24 Toyo Tires. The vehicle was lowered 3″. The grille was painted black to match the wheels. It also has custom made headlights with HID kit and Halos. Great choice on the 2-piece wheels because they are a lot less likely to bend than the 3-piece wheels, especially on a heavy SUV like this. The tires are not too low profile, so that also helps protect the rims. The color is really boring, would have loved to see it be converted to a matte paint job.

I feel like this customization is incomplete. If your going to paint the grille and the wheels all black, why would you leave all the chrome molding?

One of the best scorers in college basketball history, Stephen Curry now plays for the Golden State Warriors. While many people had questions about his size and wether or not his skills would translate to the next level, he proved them all wrong. He is one of the best young guards in the NBA. Here he is standing infront of his customized 2009 Mercedes Benz G55 from California Wheels in San Jose.

The wheels are 24″ chrome and black Modular Society wheels with a custom Mercedes center cap. The tire size they went with was 350/35/24 all around. Some other extras include custom LED tail lights, custom LED blinkers, custom chrome cages, window tint, and smoked lights. The head rests also have “SC30” stiched into them.

The car looks great, nothing but black and chrome all over the car. Great fitment with 35 series tires on the 24s, he wont be bending his wheels every week.

Josh Koscheck goes back to back on our website with this silver 2007 Ferrari F430. This looks a lot different than his black Hummer that was previously posted. Both cars were customized by California Wheels.

The best part of the car is the matte black Vellano wheels.  The front has 19×8.5″ Vellano VSH wheels with 235-35-19 Pirelli tires. The rear has 20×12.5″ Vellano VSH wheels 325-25-20 Pirelli tires. It also has Brembo Ceramic Brakes that were custom painted yellow, a Quicksilver Exhaust, ECU Tuning, tinted windows, and smoked lights. That killer stance is achieved by lowering the car 1.5″ with coil overs.

The silver car with matte black wheels looks really clean. I also love the yellow brakes to go with the yellow Ferrari emblem on the car.

Oakland based rapper, Richie Rich, is seen standing here in front of his silver Bentley Continental GTC. The car is sitting on 22″ chrome and black Forgiato wheels. The car was customized by California Wheels.

The wheels are staggered, 22×9 and 22×10.5. They have custom Bentley center caps. My favorite thing about this Bentley is that they painted the windows and trim on the wheels black. It is a very subtle thing to do but it really makes the chrome spokes pop.

Very clean car! Only thing I would change on this car is the blue top, wish it was black.

Cain Velasquez just destroyed Brock Lesnar this weekend to take the UFC heavy weight championship. Here he is standing in front of his black 2009 Ford F-150. It was customized by California Wheels in San Jose, CA.

The truck is equipped with 20″ RBP 94R wheels, custom RBP grille, RBP side steps, and custom exhaust w/ RBP exhaust tips. It has a 6″ suspension lift, custom intake and engine tuning. To complete the look, they also added smoked tail lights and healights, blacked out emblems, and tinted windows.

I think this car matches Cain perfectly. It is a bad ass truck for a bad ass UFC fighter.

We go from current Raider to former Raider with this post on JaMarcus Russell and his silver Bentley Flying Spur. JaMarcus Russell was one of the most gifted quarterbacks in the NFL but a bad work ethic and bad decisions led to him being cut by the Oakland Raiders. Although his NFL career has been a failure, he is still rolling in style off of the field.

This silver Bentley Flying Spur is staggered on 22″ Forgiato Otto wheels. They are all chrome with a 3″ lip in the front and a 5.5″ lip in the rear. I dont know what costs more, the Bentley or all the jewelry he is wearing.

The car is customized in a very nice way. My only criticism of the car is that it should be lowered a little. I am sure once he gets off the car, it will be sitting up too high on those 22s.

This is Vernon Davis’s 4th car on our website. This guy really loves fixing up the cars he buys. Here he is standing infront of his 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8 customized by California Wheels. I would be smiling too if I was standing infront of this beast of car.

This Challenger is staggered on 22″ Forgiato Veccio wheels, 22×9.5 and 22×11. The center is painted white and black and the lip of the wheel is red with a white pinstripe. It has an Eibach Pro kit, Angel Eye head lights, painted rally stripes, mirrors, and a body kit. The inside has a nice suede headliner and all the windows are tinted.

I absolutely love when atheletes represent their team colors with their cars, its a sign of loyalty. Here Vernon makes the red and white of the 49ers look good on this Challenger. Thats a little too much paint work on the wheels but it still works.

After hearing about the Tiger Woods “situation” all month, I came across a really nice story about an athlete and his wife. Nate Clements of the San Francisco 49ers is one of the true lock down cornerbacks in the NFL. His wife went and bought a brand new 2010 Camaro SS for him and had it customized by California Wheels to give to him as a suprise birthday gift.

The wheels are 22×9 and 22×10.5 Asanti AF144s with a two-tone face, red pin stripe, with a 4″ lip in the front and 5″ lip in the rear. The tires are Toyos – 255/30/22 and 285/30/22. The Camaro also has an eibach lowering kit, flowmaster exhaust system, red brembo brakes, custom phantom grille, smoked lights, and tinted windows.

The best part of the car is the red suede interior with the custom designed “LOCKDOWN 22” head rest logos. Im really feeling the silver and red combination on this car, everything is very clean.
