You lookin at the same pics as the rest of us? They definitely looked stretched, not ridiculously stretched but more than normal

Good eye. Stupid tire went flat within 20 mins of being installed. I'm getting a new tire tomorrow.

Rims are 9.5 inches wide.

I guess I wouldn't consider a 255/40 on a 9.5 rim a mild stretch. Looks normal to me. But I'm into aggressive fitment (to a point) so I guess my gauge for stretched tires is different than some.

Looks good. I would go w/ a 255/35 on the rear though. Please get center caps.

I'm going with a 225/35 on my next setup on a 9.5 wheel thats a stretch

I'm more impressed by the de-chromed trim/handles than the wheels...

I agree, a 225/35 on a 9.5 is a stretch.

Normally, I only like it when OEM brake calipers are black... but in your case, I think they would look really nice if they matched the wheels.

Thanks. I had them painted after another member pointed out that the chrome trim won't match my bronze rims. I'm going to have the handles painted twilight next. The mirror bases will be painted flat black so I don't have to deal with them going gray every few months.

^ I'm not sure if it will be too much. I'm still looking at/for pics of others who have matched them. I still might but I know how the black looks already and I'm ok with it.

It already has VA legal on the front windows. The rear can only go another 15% darker.

TB would look awesome IMO. Color matched FTW.
