Yeah, they look awesome, but it sucks that everyone is beating me to the punch with the black and polished LE wheels....

Damn, I want my wheels!! At this rate by the time I get them everybody and their brother will already have done it.

Do your tires rub or hit the fenders? I am about to install these same wheels and they do overhang a bit and I am afraid a good bump will drive them up into the fender (rear, I haven't put them on the front yet).

Thanks,
Scott

There are certain colors that the black rim /silver lip works with. In my opinion it's a great match to a silver 7 (and it's set off with the black body moldings). Looks great Matt.
