I was seriously considering getting those wheels, they look amazing! Problem for me was that none of the shops offering them down here in SoCal had the correct fitment for my car and/or to clear BBK. also, I really wanted them in 19" and the maker doesnt offer them in 19" yet.

Please post more pics of the car b/c now you have me thinking I should get them in 20".

Ok..the trick to lowering your car like this is...hit that little button for the airmatic suspension so it lowers...think it almost lowers a full inch

Actually, car isn't lowered...stock on these rims!

I'm glad you guys like it!

Does it just look lowered because you're running 20's with a larger diameter?

Really?

I regularly cut 1.7 60-foots with my T-1Rs. Best tire for the $$$, IMO.

I'm curious as to why you don't like them...any input?
