Got my new wheels installed!
Rims are 18 x 8 Axix XMX with some eBay Acura center cap stickers
Tires are Continental ExtremeContact DW. Very impressed with them so far. It's been in the 30's with rain/sleet/some snow and the tires have been great, even though they are the summer only compound (DWS is the equivalent all season model).

what are the specs on the tires?? seems meaty, props to extreme conti's you got the summer edition tires and rides well on sleet and snow...impressive
not a bad looking set... a drop would make it look much cleaner

I find that the wheel gap never bothers me in person, it's really something I never notice, probably because relative to basically every car I see on the road it's the same whereas online there's lots of modded cars to compare too.
I do a ton of driving though (50 mile commute, roadtrips, etc.) and usually at a quick pace so I value driveability over all else. Living in MN that means season-specific tires and something with a little ground clearance.

Looks good.
I also bought DW (haven't put them on yet) and was worried about their driveability when the temps got below 45 since they are summer tires. Good to know you still have traction in those conditions. From what I read though, I would still be careful under those conditions with those tires.

The meaty tires do help with the lack of a drop, I think still think it needs to be a touch lower if you're going to run aftermarket wheels.
