I like them. They are similar to the wheels I'm running (five bars with the multi-piece appearance). They should look good, nice pick.

Did you purchase a package deal or did you go with just the rims?
What is the overall size?
Also care to share the price...

Thanks.... BTW they look great, but I don't particularly like deeper dish wheels, I like the flush look... Just my 2 cents though

Broke_Apex_Seal: Your other wheel was much nicer, but with your new one, you should have fun cleaning all of the dirt and dust off with a q-tip as your going to need trying to reach this hard to reach spaces.

I order these: http://discounttiredirect.com/produc...napl.om.xl.jpg

Plain, yet adds a bit of meaness. :}

The first set will be easier to clean, but the 2nd set is equally as tight as long as you stay with 19's. Konig makes a great quality rim for the price. You may want to check out the Motegi Racing website, they have similar rims and they are very reasonable.

I think that they cheapen the look of the 8. (Privats) That's just my opinion. Does anyone know if a 245/40/19 will fit?
