Whitewater Pearl 8 with new rims *pics inside*

I was lucky enough to come across a great deal on a set of HRE 545 wheels. I fell in love with these rims from the moment I first saw them. Here they are installed on my RX-8.

The specs for these rims are:
Front - 19x8.5
Rear - 19x9.5

I also ordered some Toyo T1R tires from Wheelautohaus that should arrive sometime next week. The size of the tires will be 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. The current tires are Hankook Ventus K-104's. If anyone is interested in buying my current tires or want to know more about them you can send me a pm. Enjoy the pics!

They were $3,450 shipped with tires included.

The deal was from a private seller, which is why I said I was lucky to find them, sorry.
