Gram Lights 57 Optimise - Black w/ red

Does anyone have these? I think they'd look pretty good on a NBP TL. What do you guys think? Here is a picture from the TireRack website. They are 18"s



I know they are mentioned in this thread but does anyone have them on their TL?

I've seen a lot of TL's with these type of rims. I usually don't like to copy other people but something looks good, why not? Plus, we probably all live in different states

Haha aight. They are kind of pricey but I think I can convince myself to pay for em.

Hopefully by the end of next month, I'll have a NBP/Ebony TL to put them on.

To me, the picture above shows too much tire. Is there a way I can get 18s and minimize the tire-to-fender/quarter gap without a drop?

Thanks

@stillhere153
Can I see a picture of your 5 spokes?

if you photoshop your pics with a drop, then you can just pretend there is no gap

but i would have to say no, a drop would be needed...

Haha good answer. Aight i just don't want to scrap the bottom of my car too much, since i've read that even with the stock height, this happens. True?
