Nice wheels Siber. It's impossible to keep a car that clean here in Michigan

Bet you couldn't wait to try those on?
Are they 18's? They look like it to me. 18's do look best on the HB and had it not been for the practical $$$ side and unsprung weight issue, I would've gone there too.
What size tires are you running now and who's? 225/40's? 45's?
Nice wheels, Ken!

Very nice choice, I think they only look good on burgundy and black 3's.

They are 18X7.5 48mm offset ADR J-Drive wheels with Fierce 225/40-18's. $619 for the Set so I don't think I did to bad, plus the tires are $89 dollars to replace over a $200 dollar tire that probably won't last as long as these.

Not bad at all. That's about half what mine cost and though I LOVE my wheels, I am not crazy about the tires.
Good job!! As VB said, they look good against the CRM.

So far I haven't seen the TPM light come on, I have to still get those out of the stockers and put them in and have them rebalanced. I might just get it turned off.

I think they look pretty sharp on blue also.
