Talking My new RH J5 in GunMetal

I was able to sell my 20" Axis Penta a few weeks ago. I called around about 5 different vendors to order a set of RH J8's in GM, the best deal and best customer service that I got was from...Charles @ WheelAutoHaus ( 1-800-766-0866 Sales@WheelAutoHaus.com ) This dude was cool as hell and gave me a bad @$$ deal, to the point that other places that I woun't mention, were like dude we can't match that price.:bow:

Once I got my J8's I notice a factory cosmetic defect, one of the wheels wasn't polish all the way in the lip. Charles recalled the wheels back and hooked me up with some sick @$$ RH J5's (I like them way better than the J8's) for the trouble and the wait, he upgraded my rear tires to 285's. I can't be any happier.

So here they are:

Couple more pics... I notice you don't have the covers over the lug nuts - just the center cap. Looks sweet though! Might have to try that.

Those look great! And the 285s look perfect for Toyos! What size are you running up front?

Sweet. I love them! Especially since they're not Volks. It seems like everyone has those (no offense to anyone really, just my opinion).

NICE! I gave those wheels strong, strong consideration.

Is it me or is the RH Gunmetal a lot darker than Volk's gunmetal color. Maybe it's just the way the wheels look in the picture. Me likes (I have a CS and initially agonized over the light car/dark wheel decision)!

Very true

I 'm running 245's, and I like them cause they are flush too, I would assume that 255 will bubble up since my wheels are 9.0 in the front.



And thanks everyone for the complements

Well, I am not super concern since I have Tein-S Tech so the drop is only .5 in the rear. I you have for example Eibach Pro-kit you will definately need to fender roll before you install youe wheels with 285 cause thr drop on the Eibach is more aggresive. I like the Eibach more but I had 20" before in my car and it would be to low with the 20's so I got the Tein.

Z Monzter - Those rims look SWEET!

suprpwr - I have the same rims you do and I just mounted 285's on the back. I'll let you know if they rub.
