The tires are 245/40/19 in the front and 275/40/19 in the rear. I went with Gloss black because it's what I like best. I have seen them gunmetal, blue, silver, white, even green...but I felt gloss black would look the best. I wasn't trying to get in on anyone's style, it's just what I liked best. All 3 of my cars I have owned have been white with black wheels, I'm afraid of change haha.

Probably because that is the color that is most stocked unless you special order them.

Love the wheels, not feeling the unpainted lip, looks like an underbite like Bubba from Forrest Gump...
