thanks guys for all the compliments...the wheels are polished aluminum

I really wanted to know how they were gonna look....like Zapata pointed out they do like small for being an 18"....but I think anything more would sacrifice the ride too much

HRE came out with the R lip which makes the wheel look bigger but to me it doesnt look as unique.

the pictures dont do the wheels justice they look 100% better in person...the total package looks different it pics than in person

Damn Dude! Those are awesome. I'd leave them bare though. Looks like they'd be fun to sit and polish. I always love the look of HREs but don't think they look as good on a car as they do by themselves. THey are working really well on your car though. Nice score!

They look more like 17's but are still nice. I'd lower the car to try to make them look larger.

It looks like the tires are being stretched to even fit on those rims

the front wheel is 8.5 inches wide so a 225/40 is kinda small but my boy at parts and polish said its the tires..Pirelli tires run small....he recommended the Potenzas S03 which which run wider and boxier than the Pirellis

225's on a 8.5" tire?? You should have went with either 245's all the way around or go with a staggered 245 up front & 265 in back. You better be hellaciously careful with curbs, because 225' arent gonna protect the wheels at all.

But anyways, I think they look nice and fit the style of the car perfectly. And polished/chrome ownz silver/painted.
