I am not much for performance, I just want a nice ride. They were recommended to me so I will see how they are. $170 a piece.

not exactly a pussy, but essentially saying you have that opportunity to put a nice concave fitment wheel in the rear, don't be scared not too.

Those are the fronts, I'm assuming...with a 10.5 I'd expect more concavity, no?
On that note, those will look gorgeous on your car, Brian (you big pussy!).

Also, that pic was taken in your garage...which means you still don't have the tires on them...what's the deal! Do what I did...drop them off this evening and pick them up already mounted tomorrow after work.

I don't even have the wheels at my own house, no room. That is the rear, can't really get the idea of the concave from the top of the rim, but it is there for sure. I had to reorder to bigger tires for the rear, so waiting on those, then probably get these mounted Saturday. Will have to make two trips back and forth to get everything. Once they are mounted to the tires, I don't know if I will will to do rear fender rolling work which I really don't want to do at all.

is that flat black?

ugh i cannot stress how hard it is to properly clean flat black to make it look good.. cant really put a coat of protectant on it since its flat..

but overall nice wheels.

can you give us offsets?

Sounds like a plan, Bri...it's going to look awesome...MAYBE, with your offset, and ride height you won't need to roll fender. If you do, I'm sure you'll have it done professionally and carefully. No harm no foul...you won't even see it.

About the concavity, I got you...you're right, hard to judge from that angle.

Believe it or not, I fit all 4 rims AND all 4 tires in one shot when i took the set to the dealership this go round..
