Get a set of Renn Motorsport as 4th set, and rock 1 wheel each corners. 
Back on topic, are those monoblock forged?

All wheels include 2 year warranty against any defects, and life time on the structural.
Feel free to look at some of the close up on their Flickr page.

That is my car in the picture. Let me tell you, these wheels are GORGEOUS in person. The coating is beautiful, the silver ones wern't my cup of tea, but the grey ones were outstanding. Ray from sonictuning was one of the greatest people i've met in this industry so far, he took good care of me and i've had some very bad experiences. Pictures don't do these rims justice, and they are EXTREMELY light, i could pick one up with a 275 tire with just one hand very easily. You can feel the difference as soon as you start driving with these on. I've had them on for a couple of days, and i live in dc so i've already hit many bad potholes that i just couldn't maneuver around, my car is also lowered on kw's if that makes a difference. Long story short, if it can take DC road beating, then these rims are very well made 
Thanks Ray! Love these, idk why theyre priced so low, better than any wheel i've gotten thus far and i've been through 4 different sets that were more expensive.

Thanks for posting these great shots.
Do you have the video as well? haha
The spokes run to the edge of the wheels, which makes the wheel appear larger in size.
Also fsmtnbiker is running meaty tires vs the standard 235/265 that are on Maroon's coupe.
I know Renn MS has plans to release 20" sometimes in the summer, also aiming for low weight figures.
Love the meaty look!

That's what I have on my Mod. Concept wheels right now...they are 275/35 in the back and rub on hard bumps and with stuff in the trunk.
Do yours?

I have a sorta silly tire setup right now - Let me explain.
I'm building the car up to run One Lap of America 2014. Part of our plan is to be able to run the same size tires and wheels all around to simplify our spares and also to allow us to rotate tires as needed.
Unfortuantely, 275/30-19 PSS are not available from the tire rack until May sometime (after One Lap is over) and since we have to get the tires for the event through Tire Rack, we decided to go with 275/30-19 Advan AD08R's instead. So, I have 4 of those sitting here for the 9.5" wheels (2 of them currently mounted on the back of the car), and I bought the pair of Michelin PSS in 255/35-19 for the front because I plan to run the PSS as street tires once One Lap is complete.
Cliff notes: Rear tires are 275/30-19 Yokohama AD08R's, which run as big or bigger than PSS.
I get very light rubbing, but only on the right side and under heavy compression (passengers plus large bumps or spirited driving.) Camber is the same side-to-side but the right fender must be just a touch closer. I haven't gotten a chance to get under the car and look around at what is actually rubbing and if there's any way to add a little clearance.
I haven't noticed any front rub lock-to-lock or over bumps. Once the KW Clubsports go on, I'll dial in another degree or so of negative camber which should allow me to fit the 275's and 9.5's up front. They poke out just a bit with the factory alignment specs... A few MM more than the 8.5" wheels. I have to run a spacer with the 9.5" wheel up front to gain strut clearance. The smallest spacer I have now is 10mm which is more than necessary but I don't know how the coilover spring/perch will affect that spacing.

I'm loving the wheels so far - And the extra traction from having more rubber on the road means the car can actually hook up in 1st sometimes!
Finally got an ETA on the KW's, should have them by the middle of next week.

Great mod list so far. Proper tires, lighter weight wheels and track spec suspension
