My wheels arrived from Vossen about a week ago and now that the HAS from KW has arrived I can have them fitted.
Before pictures
I'll add the after pictures when I collect the car later.

Reason: The thread is starting to get picture heavy
Car looks fantastic. I'm doing an Australian version of exactly that car - selenite grey estate, blacked emblems, new wheels and currently debating the KW HAS kit but your pics are indicating it is a must have.
Be great if you get a chance to put some more photos up.
It looks great! I like how open your wheels are, and the color of both. Looking forward to see some outdoor pics. My new wheels and KW HAS kit can't come soon enough.
Could you please tell me exact rim and tire sizes and whether you have any spacers?
the wheels are 20x9 fronts and 20x10 rears. I can't remember the et off hand.
the tyres are 255/30/20 fronts and 285/30/20 rears. Michelin PSS.
Currently not running any spacers. The rears don't really need any but the fronts could use around 10mm.
The KW HAS is set to its lowest setting on the rear and about halfway on the fronts.

Mate, well done - Car looks great, best looking wagon/estate I've seen so far.
No doubt the 285s will give you a lot more traction than the OEM 265s.
Thanks for all the compliments guys. I only really got a few usable shots before the car got dirty.
It's been fun trying to take the shine off the new Michelin PSS at 2 degrees and with a touch of snow.
I have not had any issues with the ride height.
The pictures don't really do the Vossens justice. I'll have some much better pictures this week when the weather allows.
I think it just needs some spacers on the fronts now, probably around 10mm.

The back look perfect... I'm surprised for fully custom forged wheels they didn't get the right offset for the front.
My coupe had a lot of room in the front too... waiting on my wheels now.
