You're very welcome. Those wheels look HOT!!!

Couple of questions: 1) have you got the springs on? 2) why those tires and sizes? Do you have 275 rear?

A bucket on wheels
aw man i love em...those are the rims id get, ive been drooling over them for the past few months and specialy with the black! love it. could comments and questions.

black out your orange sidemarkers or get rid of them with euro strips. Also, your rear seems to sit a lot lower then your front. Why is that? if you dont have your springs installed i am prob assuming you have a system in the trunk and thats why its lower? could be wrong though. again beautiful wheels and car.

they looked so good i wanted to get them right away, better tires are on the way, springs are still not on, i might just go with coilovers instead..

Sweet wheels!

My personal feeling is that the black C32 with the black HREs is the ultimate in C32 appearance!!

Did you have to use any spacers or do any other mods to get the wheels to fit your car?

you need to slam it man! rims look smaller if not lowered... also the 245 n 275 will make the rims looks smaller as well.... how come you didnt go for 235 and 265?? 235 and 265 is the right width for 8.5 and 9.5...

that little extra tire around the edges saves from the rims getting dinged up, i drive in chicago alot, and the roads arent exactly perfect

you can get the 235 and 265 with the lip protector too.... although it doesnt really help... if you hit the curb, youre gonna get curb rash no matter how much tire you got protecting it!! happened to me a couple times! :p

That looks sooo good that's it's nasty good. To give my 2 cents I would say you need a lil bit of a drop. But other then that, you got one HOT *** machine!~!
