The only other shot I have right now is this one but I plan to take some nicer photos when I get a chance.

It actually came out better than I had thought as well. It could use a lowering kit but I think the gap is acceptable. 20's are a little much for me I like the mix of performance and looks that a 19" wheel gives.

Thanks everyone else for the positive replies

Not much else visually at the moment except for maybe painting the calipers black. I might add a rear sway bar and a CT engineering icebox or a j-pipe but I'm not in any rush at the moment.

Thanks LawnPro, as far as the tires go I haven't driven on them enough yet to break them in so I can't really comment on traction or handling yet. I've seen an improvement in my gas mileage and they seem to have a really low rolling resistance. They're also pretty quiet (not silent but quiet) and the ride comfort is surprisingly not that much different when compared to my factory 17" wheel/tire combo unless I'm on really rough or uneven pavement.

Not completely flush but fairly close. I'll see if I can get a better image showing how flush they are. They don't look sunken in like the oem 19" advance/elite wheels do.

Thanks JT4, I'm a big fan of GLM it shines nicely when clean but doesn't show dirt so even when the car is fairly dirty it doesn't stand out like it does on other colours.

Thanks, that was definitely the look I was going for. I noticed Audi using a very similar wheel style on some of their sport models.

I'm not sure if that's a compliment or a diss.
