yah its been quite the long wait.. ill be taking bforbrians advice and using a 215/35 and 235/35, and will hopefully be as low as i can get it without fucking something up, seeing as i dont often drive the car. my biggest concern is how im going to get it out of my parking garage.. i have to angle how it is now.

Availability probably. The CE28s are getting rare, & a black set isn't easy to come by.

yah the Canadian distributor didn't have the specs i wanted in stock, so they checked volk japan, but they also didn't have the specs in stock. so i had to wait for that size/spec to be made, and then shipped via container... . quite the long process..

Oh boy, can't wait for pics! Funny thing, before I got my TL I had no idea about wheels, then I got on Acurazine, checked out hellaflush, canibeat, state of stance, stanceworks, etc. etc.. Now I can name any wheel just by looking at him, OMG, I'm becoming a wheel whore!

Agreed. And thank you for not giving in to the nonsense of putting staggered wheels on FWD car. Well done.
