+2...

why keep changing rims? Use that money and buy 1 set of very good ones...

your car will look alot better once it's lowered...cuz right now it looks like you are going off-roading...GL

Definitely like them better than the last set. I like the blk/blk look with the machined lip. And BTW, I like offroading.......WITH MY EIGER 400! Yeah, it would look better. I have no room to talk, 8 days into ownership I am still stock, GEEZ what am I waiting for?? Oh, yeah...I got a kid in daycare! It'll happen eventually!
NICE!

will a higher series tire help with the gap? because i see that the stock 19's are on 225/45/19 and 235/40/19 and i have 245/35/19 all around and the stock wheels fill the gap well on these cars so will that work thanks?
