Work Varianza T1Ss on OB coupe... PICS!!

I got a set of the T1Ss on my car in the beginning of April but just never got around to taking some picks and posting them up. I got a couple requests to check them out on a black coupe so here ya go! Specs are:

Front: 19 x 9 +18 w/ 255/35/19 BF Goodrich TDWs ~ 3.25" lip
Rear: 19 x 10.5 +23 w/ 285/35/19 TDWs ~ 4" lip

Finish is "MPC" - Machine Polished Chrome.

BTW, YES I know my car needs a drop so please don't flame me for it... it's coming, $ doesn't grow on trees. Fenders are rolled in anticipation of this!

Great wheels and finish for OB! I'd paint the calipers black so as not to draw attention to the OEM brakes....JMO. Car looks really good.

Good looking wheels. Pretty decent offsets. I agree that the red stock calipers suck.

Sorry, I don't like the stretched look at ALL The KDWs are a bit beefier sidewall in general.... PM RAVSPEC for pricing, that's where I got mine. Very well priced rim, all things considering!

I didn't expect to get flamed for the red calipers. I can understand why you all might not like them, but I'm not going to drop $1000s to get another 10 ft of braking power. Painting them black will draw just as much attention, I would have left them silver if I cared. I guess I wanted something different since I'm going to see my car rolling on these rims a lot more. To all their own I suppose!

Thanks for the opinions guys!!
