Thanks bro. I knew white rims would look great because BoomerZ33 already pulled it off nicely already!

Thanks! I need to raise the front just a tad bit because my exhaust scrapes everywhere.
I like the overall look, and the design of the wheels with the styling of the car, but...
Is it a new trend to have tires that are way too narrow for the wheel? The lip of the wheel appears to be nearly 0.5" outside of the tire wall on the front, and almost the same on the rear. The wheel also appears to sticking out past the fender. Just not my tastes I suppose... if they were flush in all aspects I would give it

Congrats!
So what's the deal with the 7 series wheels? I like them but this is the third setup I've seen now. Are they an inexpensive way to get big forged wheels? I imagine they still require an adaptor from 120 lug pattern?
I wouldn't say it's new...check out the stretched tire thread started in '07:

I personally can't justify using a heavier rim than is needed for the tire you want to run and/or having to run skinny tires in order to make aggressive offsets work.

It actually came with the rims. They're spacers that convert it from 5x114.3 to 5x120. I'm putting up the rims for sale soon with the spacers & lugs so if people are interested them before I post it, let me know!
the highlights / shadows are kind of off on the pictures.. especially the highlights, i'd probably tone the highlights down a bit in pshop.. just my 2 cents, would give more detail to the wheels
