Super pleased with the overall outcome of the wheels and how they look on the car. In my opinion the black wheel just looks cleaner. Getting rid of the polished lip and painted face was huge. Its amazing what a color change did to these wheels. Still debating on picking up a set of original RE30 stickers in red but I am leaning to leaving them as is.

On to the pics:








Next up: alignment and more than likely coming up a few mm's just to get a little extra clearance. OEM spoiler going on as well.

Thanks! I do love me a CR lip. OEM, yet very aggressive.

Took the car out for a little back road action yesterday. The car feels great overall but can benefit from an alignment. I also need to fully relocate my rear tab and shave down the inner metal. The car will occasionally rub on large dips.
