Here ya go. The wheel gap in the back doesn't look too terrible.

Looks ok. Not a fan of black on black. Def need a drop though. You say should've bought staggered for wheel gap what u mean?

I got non-staggered so I could rotate all four wheels. The wheel gap I'm talking about is the gap between the wheels and the fender. It's much more noticeable between the rear fender and rear wheel than the front fender and front wheel. If I would have taken a photo from farther away you would be able to notice more.

Bc the rear sits higher. Nothing to do with staggered. No way you can close that gap without lowering.

Black on black looks good.
+1 on the drop, it'll make it look 10x better.

^then why'd you ask? Also black car with black wheels= literally whatever color lug nut YOU want. Not what we want you to get.

i know that it'll be my decision when it comes to the color of the lug nuts but i was looking for a suggestion as i clearly said " what do you guys recommend"? not what do you guys want me to get.....

M12x1.25. You will need hub rings and the size will depend on the size of the wheel. Get colored lug nuts of whatever color you like. Can I take the spoon out of your mouth now?
