Let the man buy the wheels he wants... I'm all for Works/Volks but let the other companies have a chance. These are HIS wheels that HE bought.

Looks good OP, never heard of them before.

If they are forged and custom to your specifications then they look great and were a great price. No everyone has to have Volks. Looks great. You are on your way to a great looking car. Just need a BBK and lip kit and your set.

If I want to be like EVERYONE else, and go with the dumb generic offsets they offer, then YES I COULDve gone that way. I would NEVER run black chrome, or anything chrome, we dont drive escalades Champ, we drive sports cars.

I like work, but they are over priced for what they are b/c they have a big name. I think these wheels look much better, and they are great quality. Have a GREAT DAY, some people

I am a huge fan dude. I really like the look, color, etc. I'm glad it's on an HR. Please lower it a bit and fit them properly, and get a lip. Will look amazing. I'm sure those wheels would look nice on my Carbon Silver HR too haha.

Please keep us updated with better pictures.

Thanks for the compliments and i am sure they would. I am hunting for a lip right now, so when a good deal comes up I may ****** it up. I have to wait till after the holidays as I am pretty tight right now, but its definitely in the works.

The shoot I was just told is scheduled for next sunday, so that I can have a free schedule. I am excited, I wish I had a lip for the car, but they said its no biggie.

Why did you mount front tires on your back wheels?

275/30-19 is a front tire and works great up front, 275/35-19 is the proper rear tire to run with your 245/35-19 fronts, or you could mount the 275/30 up front and go 275/35 rear for a great handling setup.

For ABS/TCS/VDC to properly work you should have a stagger in tire height from front to rear. Your front tires are stock height, your rear tires are 1 inch shorter than stock.

You will also lose some of the fender gap if you mount the proper tires on the rear. It will close up by almost 1/2 inch.

The sizing I have was recommended to me by 6, not 1 different tire shops to keep the speedo on tracking and for my offset and drop. The abs/vdc work perfectly, and I have seen many people running the same exact setup. It just needs a drop in the rear to fix the small gap, which no matter what needs to be done, b/c these springs rake the car, and it gives it a drag car stance which I dont like.

Most shops don't know crap about the car, and yes they are wrong , and yes the speedo is off. You are now putting more miles on your car than you actually are.
