Love your wheels!

Nice car and I'm glad the Arc-8s in 19x10 et25 fit the rear so well. I'll be foregoing the 19in upgrade on my upcoming order and will go w the Arc-8.
Did you do an in-person eye test between alpine and mineral white? What made you go alpine? Thx

I did go to the dealership and checked out both whites ... For me, I like the brightest white and therefore went with AW

I find myself on this thread almost every day. Just love what you done with the wheels and lip. Was there a reason why you didnt go with the 10.5 in the rear? Where did you buy the rims? More pics please. Thanks

thanks for the kind words

regarding the wheels, the 10.5" offset for the rear is too aggressive to run on F8x body. the 10" offset (rear) is perfect to run standard tires.

moar pics will have to wait

Would you be able to squeeze 285 width rear tires on the et 25 19x10s, in PSS form? Or do you recommend staying with 275? Thx

Need to get on the IND bandwagon soon.
