Yeah know what you mean but every one does black and im not a fan of it cause where i live all the beaters that lose their hubcaps think its cool and it reminds me of that lol and since my car is white with the pano thought it would make a good color scheme. My first w204 was black

I could of done more concave in the back but would of had to wait longer and I was on the fence about it. The max on the front is a inch but the back can go 3.5 but I just did a inch all around

Verdad GallardoWhen you get tires make it clear to your salesperson that the wheels are mint. Don't fall into the same trap as me - Discount Tire "reverse mounted" tires onto my new wheels and gouged & dented all my lips in the process. Then they tried to tell me that the damage wasn't their fault. The manager reluctantly agreed to repair my wheels. Took 4.5 weeks total. Moral of the story... make your salesperson acknowledge that your wheels are in new condition.

agreed on tires. If you can budget them go for a good tire. Generals are cheap for a reason. On another note, wheels are sweet, I have black now cause my first w204 was white, I think white wheels are the way to go on a white car. U should clear w 275 just make sure those tires arent superfat for the tire brand......mount em up

Not trying to argue but tires are the most important parts on a car. They should always be factored as #1 as its what connects you to the road. Never cheap out on tires, even if your commute is long. Its not if you'll need them, but when you'll need them. Always have the best tires for when its raining, or a car runs a red, kids run out in front, etc. A good way to get great discount on great tires is ebay. Most Porsches come with michelin ps2 and when owners grab a new set of rims they list them online used around 70-80% tread for great deals. I got all 4 michelin ps2 used for 400$ plus shipping 75% tread. Brand new would of cost me 1000-1200$ plus shipping.
