DPE R05 Variant S wheels are on

On Friday, FedEx rang my doorbell at 4pm with 4 big boxes. Finally, after 9 weeks of waiting, my wheels had arrived. They are 19"x8" up front and 19"x10" in the rear. The lip is approximately 1.75" up front and 3.75" in the rear. I believe the offset is +35 all around. There is plenty of room to clear the Brembo's. Here are some pictures...

rear lip

just cleaned

at the florida g35 meet yesterday

Im trying to like it, I really am. I just am not feelin black rims on DG. Gunmetal are ok depending on the wheel, but black I think only looks good on a black car. Take some more shots at different angles, and keep the camera at eye level, I dont think the lines of the G look as good when you put the camera a couple feet off the ground.

Since I drove over 500 miles yesterday, my car is covered in bugs and it's currently raining. I'll try to wash it later today or tomorrow and take some better pictures with better lighting.

James, I will be going out tonight to try to take some nicer pictures. The ones I posted are nothing special. If the pictures will be on your website, I want them to look good!
