Default my New Rims

I got my new rims from subydude the other day. they are rota P45R's 18x9.5 + 30 all arround in bronze. tires are BFG KDW 2's 295/35/18 in back & 265/35/18 in front on a hotchkis drop. it looks uneven b/c of the ground.. Subydude (Dan) is a great vendor he has top notch customer service, communication and fast shipping..

Guys my car got keyed so the whole thing is going to be repainted. i want to keep it light silver to keep cost down any suggestions? im thinking the E46 M3 silver with metal flake the rims are bronze now should i color match them leave em or another color
TIA
Joe

sorry for the crappy pics but i dont have my digi cam
*Edit*
Another thing i forgot the weight.. ~the rims were 22 lbs alone and with the 295 tires mounted 55 pounds the stockers 245 on the same scale were 54.5 for a reference~

Looks damn good. Any rubbing issues? As for paint, the M3 silver is nice, so are the Mercedes silvers.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys i will look into mercedes colors thanks and there is no rubbing that i can tell yet but i only let it roll a little i will drive her hard in a few weeks when i take her for SC install in LI as for the KDW 2's i had 255 45 's on my 18" G35 C wheels and they were pretty sticky.. soft enought compound for decent launches from a dig and it felt stable in the corners i cant wait to try these sizes !

Would you be able to get a closer shot so I can see how much the FR and Rear seem to buldge. Maybe when there is better light out. Cuz i have 9.5's in the rear and Im thinking about going 265/30/19 and 305/30/19's. Thx
