Quick photoshoot of the new rims
I've had the rims on for a little more than two weeks but I've been pretty busy at work, and bad weather on weekends have delayed me from washing and taking pics of my car until this past weekend.
They are 19x8.5 HP Evo's Racing w/ hyperblack finish, sitting in 245/35/19 General Exclaim UHP tires. I purchased the wheels from another member on board, and for $550 with a few minor finish issues I couldn't resist. I bought the tires brand new from Discount Tire (have done past service with them, they're one of the best tire places in the business). The tires are really good, they stick to the ground well especially in wet weather and the tread pattern is nice as well.
As a side note, I'm lowered on Eibach Pro-Kit springs, 1" drop all around. Might consider upgrading my non-sport OEM struts in the future.
So without further delay, here are the pics. Enjoy!

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I was contemplating about saving up for a Nismo kit but then I thought how the stock black sills match my blacked-out grille and how well they contrast with the silver body color. Maybe having them painted silver to match might be an option down the road.
i like them, how much bigger/smaller are your tires setup than stock?
I thought pro-kit was a 1.5" drop?
Hmm, it seems like peoples cars vary an inch or so dropped with the same springs, cant decide which i want to go with.
I like your drop, but id like it just a tad lower
