Question New wheels HELP

Alright, finally got my tires and wheels on. Was wondering if a pull would still look good or these wheels are just too wide..

I dont want to have to put too much camber, because it is my daily driver. I am on bags and the camber when i lower the car is good id say.. So would these still look good with a pull? I amd going for MR EX and Philly's stance, but not as crazy.

It sounds like they're too aggressive for your taste. They will look good with a pull when you park and dump it. But when you raise it for daily driving, it will look to high and your stance will look ugly. Not worth in my opinion. You need the neg. camber to drive low and look good.

Are the pics your stock driving height? What are the wheel and tire specs?

No my driving height will be a lot lower, i cannot lower anymore because it hits the tire. the rim to quarter panel will only be a finger gap.
