First Mod on my G - M45 wheels

Told myself no mods but I couldn't resist. Before and after pics of my G. What do you guys think? Jumped on SRSLY's offer - traded my OEM 19's for his M45 wheels with 25mm spacers. I like it - definitely more aggressive. Now...your opinion.

My thoughts: thinking of getting back to tinting but I really hate being bothered by cops. All my previous cars had tints and I would average 4 tickets a year. Still contemplating despite the fact that I know it would look "better."

My problem: The tire pressure monitor light turned on after the swap. Don't know how to get rid of it. I checked the psi on all 4 wheels and they are all the same. Does anyone know the remedy to this? Please advise.

Thanks in advance and enjoy the pics!!!

looks nice bro, as far as tints go you can always go as dark as the law in your state allows

regarding tpms, are there sensors on your new wheels? if not... that is your problem. if they are on there, you need to get them reset at the dealer

New wheels have TPMS. How much would it cost for the stealership to reset it?

In New York, no tints on the front driver and passenger window. Some will let you go but from my experience, I average 4 tickets a year. As far as looks I don't want to do half, it's either tint all windows 20% or nothing.

I wasn't sure if who ever sold it to you took them out... sometimes people keep those and sell them separately. Anyway, not sure on the price, you may want to check with your local dealer.
