I wanted a staggered wheel with a spoke design. I am fond of chrome and I also like the look of the bolts around the edge with a huge lip, so it worked out well

any far away pics so i can see the car as a whole? if you spin the wheel and it doesn't hit anything then it should be good to go.

Well for start, my rear wheels width is only 9 inch compare to what most people has which is 9.5 inch. You can roll the fender if they rub, tyre selection also crucial. Toyo is the best combination of side wall stretch and still provide lips protection. Yokohama AVS is just plain fat (hell sexy from behind but) and Falken FK451's sidewall is too thin for my liking (also lower tyre rating).

Thanks man! I hope I can get a Moderator to sticky this but ya I think threads like these rock and are very helpful. BTW could you find out your offset because it seems you didnt need spacers to clear your h&r coils, and im having a hard time finding the correct offset to clear my h&r's just as you did. thanks man

I-forged won't give you the offset, I tried in the past.

Finally put my wheels on!

I was a little worried about fitment issues but everything went smoothly and Justin at Signature motor sports was very helpful to the end. I just need to install my springs tomorrow! The wheels are Nad1 19x9.5 fronts and 19x10 rears. Any feedback would be nice. Thanks guys.

you should take better pictures; perhaps a side view or different angles of the car, so we can see better of those wheels. they look pretty good from what i can see right now .

sunshine. your rims look great dim...they must look awsome with good lighting!

Yes, I do not need spacer to clear my coilover and my car is at almost the lowest setting. But I do have serious negative camber in the rear. I love the look of negative camber those. It looks hardcore to me.

I don't have any new picture yet due to the crapy weather these days. Also, cause i don't have adigital camera. Haha. Once the weather get better, I will borrow my gf camera and shoot some pics. Btw, I still haven't have time to get the xenon fog kit that you refer to me. I'm being really lazy these days.

Thank you,

Nico
