so your the one w/ the gunmetal techno's. I was asking about that a little while back when I saw the pic from carlisle. I came this <pinching my fingers> close to buying those rims, so many times. Then I backed out b/c I saw a pic on a subaru that left a distaste. I saw them on your black car and was just amazed. They look real nice.

Aren't they 17x7 though? Your website says 17x7.5. The offset is 38mm right? How do they ride and is there any noticeable wear on the tires from the fender lips w/ the 17x7 w/ 215/45's?

I just bought a new wheel combo this last weekend. What can I say, the summer is coming.. I ended up ordering a 17x7 w/ 205/45/17's. I was thinking the 215's but I went w/ a 40mm offset, so I there could be possible issues. I figured if there's room, next time around..
