But its just sitting on factory's.

BTW I purchased the MS front and side from ACCOLADE. Fitment was okay.. nothing some bondle and fiberglass couldn't fix. Overall I LOVE IT!

Update - my 8 is offset 245 in the rear and 225 in the front. Before we get into the whole staggered debate, I didn't do it the dealer did. When I go home on R&R I will have to drive it and see how it handles.

Nice exhaust tips. What type of exhaust system is that?

Very nice on the Sterns. Lips look sooo sexy on this car. Time for clear corners too!! Great on the Tein.

mother of gawd why!?!? I've been searching forever to find something like the HP racing Evo Lighting or Enkei RPM2 in 19' and hyper black or gunmetal. I can barely find anything. I can't do a multi hole look (like 10 places for bolts instead of the just 5) and the kayalami's or whatever look terrible. Anyone got any suggestions?

Finally...new rims put on! Yippee

Been a long two weeks waiting to get all the stuff in to put on my new wheels.
Thanks to all on this forum who helped a NOOBIE with his springs and other dumbass questions.
Anyway, I know most of you don't like front masks, but I live in Florida........ever hear of love bugs? I'm also thinking of taking off the wind deflector, but it came with it, so what the hell.
Also.......the side markers are on the UPS truck now, so those will go in this weekend!
Let me know what'cha think?

Lighting was bad in a couple of the pics, I'll take some this weekend after I get the side markers installed. This one's not of the Rims of course, but is the @ss end view.

Wow, great rims and great color! I have the same size wheels and the same front wheel gap... what a pain, but they look great!

Offset? Do they rub, mine do and are in the shop getting the fenders rolled.

Gotta love all the staggered and lips on these last couple of 8's. They make such a difference in the aggresiveness or the car and work great with those big ole wheel wells...

They should come stock!

My offset is 28. And they rub pretty bad, no biggie, the dealer picked the wheel and installed them so it is all free for me. I cant even complain about shop time since I am deployed.
