Minus that they don't even fit on the car - looks at the rear shots. The offsets are so aggressive that the proper size tire will not fit on. I just think it looks like garbage when you have a rim that hangs out further than the tire.

my second 19s were 19 9 +26 19 10.5 +22 this was much better but still the fronts seemed lacking.
these are goin to be 20 9.5 +10 20 11 +10 should be pretty sick and be right where i would like it to be.

how can you not like the look of this picture??

i think it looks awesome and is just what i am trying to achieve. those are 20 11 +6
I don't think thats a 295 though, looks more like a 275 stretched on a 11" wheel. Good luck, my friend's 19x11+17 with a 285/35/19 is already pretty close to hitting the fender, and he has ~-2 deg of camber, and I rolled his fenders already

what ones?
had stocker 18s, then bought 19" volk gtc.
after a while a friend decided he wanted to trade his car in so i gave/sold him my stockers.

few years pass no problem. then i find myself sliding into a curb a$$ end first in feburary. the passenger rear is completely bent up and unfixable, and got a set of stocker in the mean time to drive around on. so i went to reorder it but it would take 30 to 90 days which usually equates to 60 to 120 days with mackin. so i bought my racing harts since they were instock.

then 2 weeks ago i found myself trying to avoid a drive shaft in teh middle of the highway while trying to get into the slow lane. one might ask why i didnt see the drive shaft and that is because i was behind a semi and has i strated to change lanes so did he. my friend in the passenger seat goes o **** look out so i swerve back into the fast lane barely missing a head on collision with this huge drive shaft. thank god it didnt hit the front bumper cause then there would have been real problems. and thank god the semi didnt hit it and throw it into the air and possibly come through my windshield or engine or something else. so i pull over after hitting it and find myself needing another new passenger side rear wheel.

so after gettin all the insurance stuff worked out. i go to reorder the wheel and dazz motorsports in no longer importing the rs721 from racing hart. it could however be specially ordered. but then come to find out that racing hart is no longer making my color in the rs721 any more (machined black), and that i can not be special ordered. so since the insurance company has to return my car to the condition it was in before the accident, being that im the claiment, has to buy me 4 new wheels of compairable wheels. so they gave me a check for all 4 and took the remaining 3 racing harts.

hopefully goin a size bigger and doubling the amount of spokes will work better for me because 19" 5 spoke wheels dont seem to be working out for me anymore.

i still have the volk gtc's in my garage just sitting there, and the second set of stockers is back on the car until these come in in mid to end of october.
