Azenis are expensive for being so bad.

NT-05, Direzza Star Spec, Federal 595RS-R are all a much, much better choice for less if not the same price

I have a quick question regarding fitment and stance. I've read just about 100 pages on here and still can't decide on the standard 17x8, 17x9 or the 17x9 +45 all around. I know what it's going to take to fit both so I am clear on that. I would like a nice flush fitment and I am more leaning towards the 17x9 + 45 all around. Any ideas on what setup would give me what I am looking for?

I am currently on Espilir springs with Koni Yellows on the upper perch. Granted if I need to drop the car a bit more I can another 1/2" or so. Right now I would say it's around 1 3/4" low. 1/2 a finger gap all the way around. Thanks.

After wanting these for quite some time, I finally sold my old wheels and got myself a set of these.
Painted them myself and going to be changing the color soon, just thought Id do it cus its a lil different.
Thanks to Boostftw for the pics and S2sik for helping me roll the fenders.

Is that purple or mag blue? It's kinda hard to tell from the lighting. What did you use to paint them? BTW, I like it, looks fly!

It is a dark purple with a lil bit of pearl in it, it is hard to capture the color.
I just painted it with some automotive paint. works the same...
