looks good...i would probably put a spacer in the front to push it out a little more to match the rears...can u get center caps for those reps? stick with the 40's...smoother ride and just more protection for the rims..

They look really good! I wouldn't change anything.

Why is there such a big gap between your rim and tire? Do you need wider tires?
How much were those?
Are they really heavy compared to the VSXX?

Sorry for all the questions.. You have just inspired me to possibly get some. I can't spend too much on wheels because my car is always parked on a public street.

looks alright for fake wheels
I like the looks of the 40s too but im rubbing already. Im gonna lowered the front 1/2 an inch and probably throw on a 10mm spacer.

I was thinking a 10mm spacer in the fronts would be perfect. They came with black center caps but i think it looks kinda wierd black, so im gonna color matched them to the color of the wheels.

I like the looks of the 40s and ride but they rub. Thats with my camber at
-3.6 F&R, I got my camber kit coming in this week and Im trying to get it it to -2.5 so Im gonna need more clearnce.

My tires looks like that cause their stretched the wheels wouldnt fit at my height with a wider tire.

The wheels are around 26lbs (I think) I dont know how much the VSXX weighs but i wouldnt compare these to them.

I believe they are made by Varrsoten.

Op real or fake aslong as it looks good and it looks good. If you want to lower the rear more, do the spring mount mod
