Congrats, those sizes get pricey very quickly!
Thank you for not stretching 215s over that wheel ...

285!? Not even wide... Jk that's crazy. Props. If it was anyone else I know it wouldn't happen.

Haha thanks guy. Unfortunately, these aren't the real tires I'll be running. I just had it lying around so decided to see if it would work. I don't think these would even it on the cg, especially at my height, without cutting the fenders up. And without the amount of power to need this wide of a tire, I'm not going through that amount work and money.

Worked on the fitment in the front a little more.
Before:

After:

Getting there slowly. Not sure what the camber was in that picture, maybe like -6. Killed about 1.25in of poke, still got like 1.75in left. Wont be working on it until next week.

Also, ordered my tires and they should be here Friday, but I'm out of town all weekend.

235/40, but they run a little wide. probably should have went with a 225/40 but we'll see.

Tires i originally ordered we sold out so i got these at no extra charge.

Posted this up on Instagram earlier, so some of you might have seen it.

After all the teasers, here are my wheels.

Looking pretty awesome, but I think you should either powercoat the spokes or the lip the same color as you car is now :beer:

I love the wheel choice. CCW LM5T's look good on just about anything. While, I love the full polish look of these, I also loved the white on white look.
So is this a staggered set-up, or a square setup?

That's in the works, but later down the road. Faces while be powder coated white.

Decided to change things up a bit, but more than likely they faces will end up being powder coated white down the road. Polished wheels are worse than white when it comes to keep them clean. Also, it's a square setup.
