scmtkings4 - They are Royal Steel Grey. We haven't had the rears in stock for a few months in this color but we still have the fronts. I just ordered more 18x9.5 P45R's in this color though so in a month we will have the staggered setups available.

oh really? thats great news for me then. By June i should hope to be getting the steel gray P45R all around. And put up pics of the new Hyperblack when you can! thanks

Thanks for the comments guys. I really did not want to have to do huge spacers. And frankly the Rota's are the EXACT style I was originally looking for. I'm happy and thats what counts!

I just got my tires!!! Going to take them down and get mounted here soon, will look soo nice I think!

I like that staggered look, I like seeing the rear wheels concave and the fronts flat. Just looks cool I think... Although admittedly, I always feel I don't have enough grip on my front wheels when barreling into corners with a staggered setup.

We'll see how these new tires are, I may try to get bigger or better tires up front to compensate. But something about having a lot of junk in the truck makes me spuge.

If you were going to go with the Sumitomo's, you should have atleast went with the zIII, not the zII's. Would have cost you maybe an extra $60 and you would have had a much superior tire. The zIII are one of the best rated tires, zII, the worst.

Meh I didnt like the look of the III's plus I didnt have an extra $60, needed that for mounting/balancing. I might get them next time depending on how these are, but I may not be going with Sumitomo's again depending on how I like these.

Regardless, I got them on now.... take a look:

Lookswise, I think it looks way better with concave front AND rear.
