Vs-xx

just got them today from chris at F1:

19X9.5 +28 (with ~3mm spacer to clear brembos, so ~+25)
19X10.5 +24 (special offset, ask chris about them)
T1R 245/35, 275/35

Great looking new wheels. Congrats! . . . As mentioned previously, they will be a PITA to wash and wax. However, the effort will be quite worth it. Enjoy!

yeah....I love this style rims but man, they are a pain in the a$$ to clean. It took longer to clean this style wheel then it did the car.

Invest in Leaf Blower to clean the wheels! It saves ALOT of time. Thats what I use for my VS-XX, just go to Home Depot and pick one up for around $30. Good luck and nice choice in wheels!

That blower is a great idea and will save a little time.....but not much. Wheels like these require drequent waxing/polishing. Digging between the spokes/cracks is not easy and a blower won't help with that. When they are clean, they are one of the hottest wheels on the market. Works in general have a classy look about them. Congrats.
