Nice wheel choice! Now throw on some 15mm spacers up front.

I got the water diverters, we had a horrid downpour here a couple days ago and you could just see the water collect when the car was sitting. I have a compressor for power tools and also blowing off the car after a wash. You're right, it will come in handy.

BTW, all my issues are resolved. I fixed the bead myself with some silicone. Tire was dismounted and remounted for free, and everything runs at 100%. The clearance between my rear caliper and the spokes is literally 2 mm. No problems so far.

I am happy with the fronts the way they are. They sink in b/c of the 1 degree camber issue, but I will likely have that resolved by summer. The rears are just sick.

Dude, thanks. If I get a better photo would you mind choppin' it for me. This one looks awesome! BTW, the gap in the rear is due to the rear tire drooping a bit. Driveway is not quite level. On level, it sits very nice.

Looks really good.

I was wondering how iForge sizes your wheels. I know they won't reveal offsets, but do they ask you how aggressive of a fitment you want? I just find it a bit odd that the front fitment seems somewhat conservative whereas the rear seems somewhat more aggressive (hate to use that term b/c gdup's going to get all crazy on me using it in the wrong way .

But, seriously though, it seems like the rears are sticking out just a tad even w/ the lowering, yet the fronts are more tucked. Even if the fronts were camber corrected to zero degrees, they don't seem like they would be as flush as the rears. Nothing that spacers wouldn't be able to resolve, but just curious as to how iForge works with the customer on sizing when they aren't willing to reveal offsets.

iForged reveals offsets as they send you a CQ paper with your wheels. That CQ paper will state your offsets as well as the other information about your wheel.

What kind of lug nuts are those btw?

Quick question, why do your lugs stick out in the rear but are "hidden" in the front? Is it from the offsets and bigger lip in the back? And if so, could you have gotten shorter lugs or do they only come in one length?

My wheels are arriving soon and I have to get different lugs as well (I was thinking McGards). I was wondering since tuner lugs have unique slots and require a "key", couldn't the tuner lugs double as "wheel locks" already? I noticed you have both on right now.

I have the McGards. It's just the wheel construction, kinda weird, but I don't mind it.

Wow... Finally got them on I see! Good job and even greater patience.

Looks great! That finish looks really nice on your car. Rear offset is perfect, but I do agree with the others that the front could be more aggressive... some 10mm or 15mm spacers up front would probably do the job and they'd also give you a little extra caliper clearance, which always comes in handy when cleaning inside the wheels and the calipers.

Ditto to what Terry said... Multipiece wheels tend to catch water behind the inside lip where the pieces bolt together. If you let the car sit after washing it and don't blow this out with compressed air or soak it up with a towel, that water will slowly leak out and will eventually leave a stain mark on the lip.

Oh, and Robby, I know I've said this before, but I'm gonna say it again... Your a freaking PhotoShop genius! Nice work!
