The wheels look good, not sure if I like the low-profile tires on your car though haha.

I like them a lot better than your old ones! But now you have that wheel gap lol and your car already looks low enough.

I think these are my favorite wheels yet!! But I also noticed that they look too small with the tires in proportion to the car.

If you're keeping the current wheel's tire size, then it would look best lowered a tad more and with spacers for some poke. I think you should get a bit meatier of tires, comparable to your TOM's wheels though and it would fill nice.

You should thread them all the way down one day just to see how it would look!

I miss my TOMs wheels
will see about bigger profile tyres and spacers, i think if i put spacers on then they may hit the arch lip

bought a deck spacer and aluminium radiator today (no pics of the rad, will get some tomorow)
fitted
much better mid range and top end, hasnt affected low down pull (which was already great) sad thing is that i cant fit my strut brace on there anymore

Well it's not like your brace had any real effect anyway Not like this part! Very nice, allows much more air inside!!
