thanks for the kind words guys. i really couldn't be happier with the end result myself. the pictures really dont do the wheels justice as far as the way the color on them pops.

someone PMed me asking about tire and lip sizes, so i figured id share that information here too.

tires: 245/30/20 Front, 275/30/20 Rear
lips: 3 1/4" Rear lip, not sure about the front. ill have to check that out tomorrow.

keep the comments coming

Who is the manufacturer and what model? Do you know if you still have clearance in the inside? I'm going try out some 285's on my +48 wheels for the heck of it, but I think your +50 would have been better. Great job on your wheels!

Looks really good. I love the color match. I expected to see a bigger lip in the rear with the 10" wide wheels. Still, I think it looks pretty hot.

i actually purposely didnt reveal the brand name because i wanted unbiased criticism, whether it be bad or good. some people have their preconceived notions about certain wheel companies and give negative feedback based solely on that. that being said, the wheels are made by Ace Alloy. theyre actually a pretty inexpensive 1 piece rim which is the reason for the lip probably not being as big as some would expect with a 10" wide rim. the model is the Executive.

after doing business with Ace Alloy however, i would HIGHLY recommend against ANYBODY doing business with them. their service is awful, basically telling me to **** off when i called them complaining about how long they were taking to get my rims to me. but frankly, they had the style wheel i wanted in the sizes and offsets that i wanted it in, so i put up with their ****.

bro that car looks amazing. I am LOVING the fact that the +50 offset in the rears allow 10's to be inside the fender! Now I know what i need to look for in order to fit the 10's in the rear. How much did the color match for the rims cost? the look so dark, but you can tell that the rims and the car just go perfectly together.

hmmmm...I'm gonna have to go against the grain here, but those wheels just don't do it for me, especially them being color matched to blue slate. Nice drop though.
