yeah...
It's so hard making the decision.
Then it's even worse having to wait.

2-3mos. for a custom order is pretty standard. In the end, all the agony will be well worth it if you did your research and ordered the right fitments.

Looks really good but personally I would have gone a little more aggressive front and rear but looks really good

MPK1232, do you have any close up shots? I ordered the 19s but they do not have the offsets I want so I'm considering the 20s....looks good by the way.
