After waiting all winter to have the wheels refinished I finally got them back. Gun metal centers with polished lips. 19X9 in the front and 19X10 in the rear with 235/35 and 265/30 tires and lowered with links. It is a crappy iphone pic but I will post more this weekend.

Thank you! I feel the same way but the offsets are a little too aggressive so at a lower ride height it rubs.

Looks great. Seems like an awfully skinny tire for a 10" rear though.

Curious as to why you're running these sizes? Typical size would be 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. Is it because the car is lowered and you might rub or what? Nice setup!
