Nice Kevin. I especially like the front shot. Is there something done on your grille- blacked out or blacked out chrome? Looks good if so.

Wow, those are some aggresive offsets especially on the front.

Kidney grille and the mesh underneath are both blacked out, ya. Yes, the front offset is really, really aggressive. I was worried it'd rub, but so far none.

Damn, you're good. Seriously, you picked that from the tread pattern?

I went with them because I'd had them before and liked them and *mostly* because I got the deal of the century on them. The DPE guys had them and said they'd mount/balance them on the wheels for $700 USD. Couldn't turn that down.

Oh, here's a closeup of the wheels someone asked for. The quality is nice, I love the little lips milled into each spoke.

very nice kevin! Mesh rims are the best Though i think you could've gone with a more aggressive offset in the rear. What's the specs on those bad boys?!

19x10 rears, 19x8.5 fronts. DPE doesn't release offsets, but we measured. Rears are 32 fronts are 28; so ya the front are a little more aggressive. I am glad the rears are in by about 2mm (30mm is the flush offset), since I'm lowered. I'm about 1mm away from rubbing in the rear, so any more would have rubbed.

That's a totally different setup from mine;
front 8.5 = 35
rear 9.5 = 22 (for 10" I would have been ~26 - 28 rear)
