I like 'em. Kinda remind me of the BMW M rims, only yours are shinier.

What size for the fronts and the rears? What size of tires are you running? Other wise it looks good.

The fronts are 18x8.5 +40 - Tire Potenza's 235/40/18
The Rears are 18x9.5 +44 - Tire Potenza's 265/35/18

After seeing them on the car I could have gotten 245 and 275's but I don't like the tire choices in those sizes so I am happy.

A picture of me changing them from SSR intergals

Hmm. You went from nice, simple, light weight SSRs to heavy Speedlines? Well I guess they're not so bad since they are actually a two piece wheel which justifies the existence of the rivets.

Possibly:

The SSR's are 17x8.5 and 9.5 with Yoko AVS Sports. They have about 50-70 percent tread left. Only about 7K on them.

How much do you think there worth?

Don,

4 extra pounds per wheel is not going to hurt my car. I am putting down enough power to easily justify. The riviets are actually titanium and needed not just show.

The reason I got them was because alot of people had my old SSR Intergals and I wanted to be a little different. Not many have speedlines and they are a little more aggressive.

Hence why I said:

"Bah, I shouldn't criticize. They look nice."

I probably should have edited the first post. Didn't mean to look like an ***.
