Why not wider tires in the back? I mean if someone squeezed a 305 onto the stock 10" rim...

With my offset it prolly would not tuck. It barley will now.
Just got word that my wheels are ready to pick up so I will have pics tonight or tomarrow but this time they will be high res pics. also just went to fedex's website with my tracking number mike from blickline gave me and my bbk will be delivered sat morning! 140lb package, hope they don't really weigh this much!
I had a high end clear coat put on the polished part of the lip to help them stay nice
and I hope the color I picked out for the face of the wheel looks as sexy on the car as that color code looks on the platinium graphite 370.

Are you going to put center caps on them or leave those nasty holes open?

I am going to put bannanas in there. Maybe even hide my crack in there, yes of course I am going to put center caps on they have not come to the states yet. But next week a batch will be in. Not sure if I am going with the polished caps or carbon fiber caps.

I say you go with bananas and crack. CF might look better with the darker wheel, unless you want it to contrast with the face and match the lip.

I got two of them back and I will post pics when I get to a camera at home tonight. I got the wheels back and man there is dust all over them you think after droping 600 for their service they could clean them up some. Any who they look awsome; and look for an update tonight for sure.

Yes. Sorry I took pics last night but I could not get a good shot with lighting issues. The wheels are going on the car today. The wife is picking the other two for me in about 2 hours. The wheels look great and I am trying to figure out what center caps I want. I might go carbon-fiber or polished silver, and could even paint the polished center caps to match but I am not sure. Need some soon I dont want to rust out my hubs for sure. I will try to make the update today by 5:00 central time.
