because they look good.... I can't have 2 sets of wheels and tires? what's wrong with having a good looking set to cruise with and a set to track with? I'm not driving like an asshole and racing the streets of Southern California every single day. an extra 12lbs for daily driving isn't going to change a thing. and I wouldn't be using 20's for tracking on this car. these are solely because I think they look amazing. and they're flow formed fyi. slightly different than traditional casting. I also got Toyo tires for these.... am I going to hell for not getting the Michelins? lol

Got you, I was just asking some people don't know the difference but at least you know and don't care about. Now regarding the Michelin, no you are not going to hell lol the Toyos are great tires and for the price you can't beat them. Good luck with the car bro !! Post pics

ok took some pictures in different lighting. all with an iphone so not the best quality, but you get the idea. i'll post better pictures if i get around to getting some professionally done. I feel like i took a risk doing this color and it's totally not something i would normally do, but i love the way it looks. pictures are in the first post.

You may think your taking a risk, but in reality your making it your car. Looks fantastic. Bet those wheels would look awesome on my Black Sapphire/Sonoma Beige M4. Lock em down. LOL

Of course you can, and you do.
Except that this set of wheels has too small of an offset, especially in the rear. You are one good pot hole or road dip away from involuntarily rolling the rear fenders

To each his own.
Good luck to you !

Looks great!

I would encourage you to get a slight drop and it would look 1000x better. But its your car, you do what you want.

Ive been debating what color to PC my wheels and Gold and Bronze are on the list. Also getting Sakhir btw.

I'd be afraid of a drop is I'm already at risk of rubbing....

What are your wheel specs? Widths and offsets.

When you drop it the wheels will camber in a bit so it would actually help with rubbing, youd just be burning through tires a bit faster. lol

It's not any different. It's your car, your money paid for it , you should be able to do whatever you want to it. Paint it polka dot pink if you felt like it
