Default YAY FOR NEW WHEELS. (56k GET WITH THE TIMES ALREADY.)

Well what a day its been, had to pick my car up from the impound cause i parked somewhere i shouldn't (oops).. But when i got home finally my tires showed up, so first thing i did was go and get them mounted.. I really love the way it looks.. though kinda wish the rear poked out a tiny bit more. But the front looks awesome.. Anyways enjoy!

BEFORE..







AFTER..

Get some spacers for the rear to make them stick out more.

i plan to, though i have minor rub from hard bumps in the rear.. i still plan to roll the fenders and put flares on it.. so the front will most likely get spaced aswell.. but not till next month.. rest of this month is reserved for bills..

Looks good. You can always go with One Ton Garage spacers for the rear. I have them and it made a world of difference on how the wheels looked in my opinion.

Looks nice! To even out the rears with the front PM Mike username AllianceAutoSports and get a set of 1/2 inch spacers for under 50 bucks shipped.

wheels are 16x8 with a 15 offset, with 205/50r16 tires (Hankook HRii Ventus)

*also there is alot of rub in rear. and it has scrapped alot of the tire..
but the damn 405 freeway is way to bumpy for it.. the 118.. not a problem..

ive actually grown tired of the TYC's, (not a big fan of the chrome), thinking of getting the stock ones painted red or blacked out..

however, if i can get that chrome blackened somehow on the TYC's then i would love them..

You should check these out.
they are a little smaller, but they would have looked better with the fender flares.
they are 15/7.5 with a +0 offset.

I still like the XXR 501's better then that konig.. i like the 16, and wirth the 8" width, my car just handles soo much better..

I know simulated beadlock is a bit overdone, but if its going to be there, id rather have more then a few..

Looks great.

The main rubbing issue you're having is tire size, not just width but overall diameter. Get 195/45/16's and no more rubbing.

BTW- the fake bolts are to make them look multi-piece, not beadlock (that would be crazy tho...)
