Thanks everyone, I will post some pics when I get em on. And Xero i did check in the bidirectional tread and it seems the Pirelli P-Zero is the way to go. Alittle expensive though. But atleast I can rotate side to side.

Is that the spark silver or mercury silver? And is that 19x8 or 19x8.5? And how the hell did you get them so damn fast?
And invest in a set of lowering springs. I can recommend the Tanabe GF210.

+34 offset and the lugs are from the place that put them on (local shop). Spark Silver. I ordered the rims through the shop and got the tires from Tire Rack(got the tires in less than 24hrs.). Rims took 5 days. I will lower it but i'm waiting for some more reviews on coilovers.

Well heck if you're going for coilovers I can recommend the Tein Flex with EDFC, which I had put on a few days ago. Will do a write up when I get alignment done and take more pictures.
I ordered the Mercury Silver, but special order 18x9, so I have to wait another two months or so for my rims.

That will be next, but it may be a while. I want to put coilovers on and I'm waiting for Tanables to come out to read reviews on those. It will most likely happen this winter while its sitting in my garage waiting for spring! - Good winter project. I'm also thinking about the R-Magic wing, I really like that wing, it looked awsome on that car in switzerland.

It may be a bit more rough but not really noticable. I do really like the tires, Perilli pzeros, they have great grab, and also pretty good wet traction too. I just put "Dorthey" away for the winter, had a bit of snow 2 days ago. I will miss driving her ALOT. Now i'm stuck driving my old Dodge pick-up for the next 4-5 months. I guess it will make spring time even more enjoyable!
Oh and by the way, I used to get quite a few looks with the stock rims, now with the SF's EVERYONE looks...its a nice feeling.

I can imagine. I ordered them special order in 18x9 about 2 1/2 months ago, but am thinking about changing to 19x8.5. Yours are +42 offset front and back, correct? You wouldn't happen to know how much they weigh?

Yes, the offset is +42. The Rims weigh 22lbs. ea. The tires Perilli Pzero neros in 245-35-19 are 23lbs. ea. I think the setup is about 1lb. lighter than stock.

The funny thing is that I've waited 2 1/2 months for the 18x9s, and I could have just ordered the 19s and gotten them within a week...I thought the 18s would look good with the stock appearance package, but then I decided to get a body kit and that all changed.
