I just love these wheels... they are awesome
considering the price and the look you will get from those wheels....
Superb...would you mind posting more pictures of your car with your 19" wheels? Thanks

Yea, I plan to take some more pics later this week with a better background. And yea, the price I got on these was pretty good. $945 shipped w/ lug nuts & hubcentric rings from Elementwheels out in AZ. Great company to deal with and very good customer service. But the new vendor Rxmotors said he could get em for $900 picked up in Tampa, but tax would have made it more than Element, so I stuck with them....
Got the tires from tire kingdom mounted & balanced for $580

1. The choice of a 225 or a 235 is reliant upon wheel width and how much room you have with the offset of the wheel - NOT because its a TL.
2. No it will not appear lower, the only difference in a 225 or a 235 is width.
Anyways, car looks beautiful! Perfect choice. With a slam, it will be flawless.

215/50/17 tires have the same exact overall diameter of the 235/35/19 size tire, which makes it the ideal choice for the 2nd Gen TL. But, due to rim widths, offsets and drop setups, 225 is the next best thing for those with very tight clearances. I have mm's of clearance with my 235s, but I'm glad I have them.

looking good bro!! I was looking into thoughs wheels before. I always wondered how they would look. good choice!!. Finally the Antricite crew is coming alive!! haha. Watch out for thoughs pot holes though. when I had my 19's on with the 235/35s the pot holes ate my wheels alive. 3 wheels got bent. be careful!!. good choice overall!!!

haha, funny you should post that. i just bought some koni's and installed them w/ my prokits on the lowest perch yesterday. my rear looks like your photochop w/ no finger gap, psychic?
but my front still sits higher w/ about 1.5 finger gap
i dont know what to do, thinking of buying sportlines since i've got brand new koni's.....
I'll throw some updated pics up tomorrow.

It says that the size of wheel is 19 X8.5 48mm offset. Anyone has a set on your car? How's the brand Moda?
