Didn't you receive the memo saying you had to ship me those wheels the moment you got them, or your balls would spontaneously combust and drop off if you delayed?

Absolutely spot on - Rondy's done a superb job with those.
I take it that's brand new rubber on them?
If so, make sure you bed them in gently over the next 500 miles or so, to get the mould release agent out of the grooves.

Even so, I only said what most of you were thinking anyway, but were too reserved to say out loud.
We're all jealous of him being the first with a set - except me of course!

Jay.....Just my thoughts...
1) Paint the mudguards
2) Lower the front just a tad...The back looks just perfect but the front end looks like it can be lowered just a TAD..
Great Wheels Jay!

Thanks guys! I'm loving them, its the very first set of aftermarket wheels I've ever bought.
An observation I've made...
I'm on Tein SS's and going from the stock TL wheels with stock michelins to the Legends with falkens, I'd say I've actually gained a little more fender well gap. I might lower it a little more. I haven't driven the car yet though to make sure there is no rubbing.
And as far as the mud guards, I MUST have them, my car would be scratched/chipped to death if I didn't. I might consider painting them but I haven't decided. I think I'll remove them for the next photoshoot

BTW, someone asked the weight of them, they are 22.5 lbs.
Lighter than the OEM 17" wheels.
