Coupe 17's on a sedan

I remember a bunch of people asking me to put these on so they could see the fitment. Sorry it took so long guys. But they're on and they're a perfect fit, just like a said they'd be.

Running the stock tire sizes:

Front: 225/50/17
Rear: 235/50/17

Yes, one side is painted white and one side is black. I get bored easily. And yes, its a gloss white so it doesnt match at all, but i dont care because i just needed the wheels to drive back and forth to SF for the holidays and i've been driving back and forth to LA once or twice a week so i dont want to kill my good tires.

The car is Dropped 1.5" all the way around with -1.8 camber up front and around -0.6 in the rear.

On to the pics!

if only the white matched your IP, you'd have a sick scheme!

i was seriously thinking about selling all my wheels and just painting these IP. Just roll stock for a while during the whole move, save some money.

for sure. it wouldn't cost very much to paint all 4, anyway.

i'm tempted to try on your sevas even though they're horrible offsets for my coupe. i just wanna see any shade of gold on my dg in person.

Any other pics of the ones painted black? From the pic you put up it looks like they didn't turn out too well, but hopefully it's just the angle!

The black side turned out ok. i did much better on the white side. Just a quick rattle can job, needed to paint them before i drove on em, they were scratched up before.

They look good Grant. I don't know which ones I would like better....black or matched IP. Both would/do look good. If you sold all your rims, you could get two sets...one IP one black?

You should have looked me up when you were up at SF for the holidays, we could have gone out for a beer or something.

Love the bumper
