They're a tad on the small side, but I think they look good. They'd look excellent with a drop and a beefier tire.

Looked into the 19's but they dont make a 19" snow tire. Thats how I justified the new wheels to my wife.
Also what do you guys recommend to to the drop? I agree I think it would like better.

a happy wife is always good and as far as a drop goes you prob want the eibbach kit or some along the lines of 1 inch front and rear. I was gonna do H&R springs which is the lowest spring but if your gonna drive in the snow id stay more conservative

Its cuz the rims blend in with the tires. I'm not a fan of black. I look at my 19's now and they still look small. I can't drop mine cuz I rub everywhere I go with my S-Kit

Just add a spacer and next tire time go wider...
Drop with H & R or Eibach with whatever spacer will make the wheels sit flush with the back being a touch more out and it will look mint... They also will appear bigger if the fender hugs the rubber.

I would've gone with a wider wheel and a more aggressive offset. I've seen these wheels with some made concave.

For spacers, 15mm Ichiba?
For Srings, Eibach? Sent Lou a PM to see what he recommends. As for wider tire, these are snow tires. Wider will defeat the purpose, in the spring I'll put my 275's back on.
