there is tire shine on them...

rears are 275 40 18.
fronts are 255 35 18..

only half a centimeter difference, which is only 2.5 mms on top and bottom, thats not realy enough to make a difference. visualy.

however, these may not be as advertised... meaning they arnt realy 35's maybe 30s.

I think they look pretty cool but you definitely need different back tires. The sidewall is too tall, and they aren't wide enough for those wheels. You need at least 275's...315's would look optimal. I think after a little tweaking to the stance, different rear tires, and TIRE SHINE, it'll look perfect! Way to be different :thumbsup:

I thought I was going to like them but I'm not feelin' it, too much of an import feel maybe? And they do look small but the tire sizes sound about right so maybe it's just cause the pics are so dark.

They're look good... but not just absolutely sick like I was imagining. I think what bugs me the most is the lack of a good lip on them. The stepped lip just makes the lip look smaller and just kinda makes the whole wheel look to flat and far out. Its kinda weird to describe exactly what I mean. They look better than the other wheels you've had in it IMO and I think they fit the car perfect, its just not.... quite as BAM as I was expecting.

That first pic really makes the blue in your paint come out. Looks good overall.

The reason they look small is because they are black. Black makes things look small... thats why fat chicks wear black.
LOL

They look Boss. I dont know what size it is but your rear tire looks to tall.

im still on the fence about these wheels, due to the rivets?
Whats the deal with rivets!!!? geez

And your stance is way far from perfect, looks like the front is higher than the back.

They will be pulled off very well with a fixed stance and a small spacer in the rear. It's definitely an upgrade! I like!

The pics are really dark on my computer, I can't even tell what kind of wheels they are.

From what I can see I think it would look better with a different stance or tire setup. Your tires are a little farther off than you think. The second number is actually the aspect ratio which translates to the tire height/sidewall.

The sidewall of your 275's is 110mm and the fronts are 89.25mm.
