Default New Wheels

About a two years ago I ordered these rims. It took almost 11 months to get them in the mail. The day before I left for deployment I received them in the mail. I went on deployment for 7 months and then I wanted to wait until I needed new tires for the car before I put these rims on. I wasnt sure at first how the GTS would look on a black car but after putting them on I couldn't be happier. The offsets are +30 in the front and +8 in the rear. Please let me know what you guys think

first off, thanks for you're service.

They look alright to me. I'm personally not a fan of that particular wheel but they look fine.

I like these wheels... always have.

Does look like it should be lower.. but good start!

I would love to lower my CA but for those of you that have ever Driven in CA you Know that having a lowered car can suck really bad for your front end. I scrap all of the time coming in and out of drive ways from places even going in and out at angles. I dont know the offsets right now but Ill get them and post them up along with more pictures.

I agree with Type One this is an excellent start. I live in socal and even in Irvine theres still driveways and uneven road. I'm lowered by 2" and have a lip and its not too bad (planning on MOAR LLLOWAR!).. just pick the driveways you know you can clear. Anyways I think a subtle drop on Swift springs ~1" will make your setup pop!

It would take some really fugly wheels to make a MB NISMO look bad...Those wheels look pretty damn good. I bet if you painted the door handles and all the emblems that same color things would really pop. As-is, it looks great.

Thanks for your service!
