Exclamation My new wheels on the FC w/ my new RE bumper

I took a lot of pics of different angles with/without flash because it's hard to get the color of these wheels into a picture.
Wheels: Weds SA70 (blue light chrome)
Front: 17x9j off set:+10 Tire:Advan Neova 215x45
Rear: 18x10j off set:+18 Tire: Wakanai 235x35

Thread Explanation: I posted these as a before view so you could see how much the rims stick out. After I get my over fenders and the car painted then I will post the after (tsuraichi) pictures. I did not buy the tires, they came with the wheels when I bought them off of the Japan auction. I would take them off and sell them but I'm not going to get what they are worth so I will just use them till they are dead. After that I will buy 235x40 for the front and 255x30 for the rear. The tires are this way because some people in Japan like to stretch the tires to get that extreme angle although this style is fading. Enjoy!

I think the car looks great.

Can't say that i've ever seen the inside lip of a wheel painted before.

Looks good. Now all you need are some tires that fit.

Yeah, I have new tires because I just bought some for my old set of wheels but I need to use these up first.
About the camber, my camber in front is maxed out right now so thats as far as she goes. as for the rear camber, I want to get a kit that a few of my buds are running which pulls the rear tires in so they are more vertiacally straight. After looking at the pics again they don't show the camber that good at all. Oh well.
I'm taking the wheels back off until I get my fenders done so I don't damage anything.

Thanks....Thanks to everyone. My suspension is a mix of Cusco strut assemblies, and Bilstein springs. It's actually not maxed out either, the rear is way high in the pics so I didn't rub while driving it to the photo op It may look low because of the front bumper or something.
