Thanks for posting these, Ronnie. Looking forward to more shoots in the future!

And a BIG thanks to HRE Wheels - great service, impressively light wheels, and definitely a prestigious product.

I'm running 20x9 in the front at ET30 and 20x10.5 in the rear at ET45. And the tires are Continental ExtremeContact DWS in 245/30 & 285/30 with no rubbing.

Wheels are definitely nice but look like a stock wheel imo.
If the stock look and just being nice is good enough, then this is it.
I like more pop and more of a custom look. Especially after spending thousands. The kind of look that comes with shiny lips or a serious concave....or both.

Just some food for thought. I don't mean to rain on your parade.

The car looks really nice.

Outstanding! Did you try/consider going with 295 or 305s in the rear?

I respect that everyone has different tastes - I personally really dislike polished lips. No harm in having those differences though. And, truth be told, after seeing them on the car, I wish I had gone with a different color.

I actually have Nitto Invos in 295 (larger sidewall) on other wheels of the same dimension that rub, so I wanted to guarantee that this setup was going to be good to go. I do think that Invos run a little big, so I would think a tiny (20-25) sidewall with any other tire would work.

Either black or something much more silver-y. I just don't like the charcoal's contrast with the car.
