Forgive my ignorance, but are those 17" or 18" wheels?

Exclamation Johnny Bling Bling

Yes those are the long-awaited K58s of Johnny Bling Bling...18s, I think?

They look great! I love the nice tucked-in look. 51 mm offsets are the way to go, IMHO!

You know, I just realized those K58s are the same wheels that M2 Performance has on their FD page? I think you need Brian to replace that old black car and snap pics of your car so you can be the M2 poster child

Enjoy the new wheels!

Simply gorgerous....huh I have those exact K58's you are talking about...The lip on the might look a little bigger on the pic becuase of the angle and offset differences...nothing as big as your SSR's...but it's nicely sized..

I even have the new color matched center caps..

I don't know what is happening.. but the image keeps reverting back to the regular K58.

Click this link to see what I'm talking about...

http://www.kinesismotorsport.com/K59R.htm

If that doesn't work I simply give up

Anyway Johnny... your wheels look awesome... but just wanted to let you know there is a new version of them out.

Wow, looks good. I'd love to see those in person some time. Maybe we can even switch wheels for a little while.
