Default Test fitting new wheels

Had a chance to test fit a friends wheels that he purchased but decided not to use. Test fitting in 35* weather not very fun but the results are surprising. Took some pics to show how they fit.

Super low disc all around
19x9.5
19x11.5

Fronts need spacers in order to clear my Supra TT calipers but should be a problem.

Here are the pics.

The 11.5 in the back actually looks pretty flush. No shots of the faces?

U finna? LOL,

Yea I'm gonna rock these come spring time. Just gotta get some money together and pick them up from my boy and then on they go.

Offsets in the low teens, the fronts are in the low 20s but still need a spacer in order to clear my calipers so 10-15mm spacer in the front is needed. I might need a spacer in the rear because the rim is sitting about 2-3mms from the bag so might need to space it out.

No pics of the face as of yet will take pictures after I fit them in a month or so.

Fronts are rolled flat and pulled. The rears are cut and pulled.
