^^those look great...any more pics?

 

my typical 527s
nexen 215/40/17s

 

thanks! so far all I've got are iPhone pics







should have some DSLR shots real soon though.

 

^^^I agree...any issues with tire rub with those?

 

no far no rubbing issues *knock on wood*

but the rims also arent as flush as most people on here prefer. I've been thinking about making a meaty tire thread cuz its really hard to find info about wide tires on a tC. I was nervous, cuz I was only able to find one other thread with someone running tires this wide.

I am thinking about throwing a 5mm spacer on the rear though to flush it out just a bit more...

 

that's good that you don't have rubbing issues so far, what are you lowered on? I love the combo you have...not too high and not too low.... looks like a nice set up for daily driving and cruising

 

thanks man, I'm on DG Spec coilovers so I can adjust the height. I rocked more of a slammed look for a while on hotchkis springs and stock rims, but I definitely prefer being a bit higher now. It rides and handles better and I actually like the look more.

 

from earlier today

 

Got these on a few weeks ago. xxr 527 flat black 17x8.25 +25 on kumho ecsta ast 215/45/17. Moteki metallic blue lugs.

 

Here is mine at the moment. These are becoming my winter rims and I will be getting new ones in the next month or two.

 

not trying to thread jack or anything but anyone know if there is a post on what wheels fit with wilwood BBK or any BBK? im on rotas now but want to get something else! here is mine now tho.






Also seeing my fenders are carbon and my doors and hood and trunk if you could help me on a wheel color that would flow would be awesome! i was thinking gun metal or satin white possibly?

 

What hood dampers are those?

 

Thy are the NRG ones IMO they sucked! Blew out after couple months and poped off the one end and scratched my OEM fenders

 

Have you considered painting your fenders and doors? You could always leave an accent unpainted to show off the carbon, perhaps leave the recessed portion of the fender vents unpainted and fade to red approaching to door.
