Very nice!

What offset are you running on the rear rim? Any rubbing with the 285's?

Any plans to lower the front a bit more to even out the gap?

No offense but I think those wheels are too plain or "tuner" for this beautiful car. Just my opinion but if you like it that's all that matters. Enjoy.

its 25 offset fronts, 30 rears (with a lil of modified rear fenders). well....if you meassured by the fenders you will see the fronts a lil bit higher, try look at the flood. i was taking those pics with my cell, ill try to take it with dig camera later to see if its look beter, please let me know.
i used to put 275, the feeling is just the same with 285.

Very nice rims, I see someone knows a little about rims. Good choice to go light weight, if I remember right the 18 inch are under 19lbs each I am just curious to how much the 19 inchs weight.

yes, its more rubbing comparing to the stock 17", plus i droped it, its much beter handling and sportier, remind me of my friend w211 e55.
about the tints, its 25% fronts and 35 or 45% rears i forgot.

its said lightweight, but to me its not really light comparing to those Volk racing wheels, 24lbs for 19x8.5 and 26lbs for 19x10
