Those rims are sick, I've been looking at getting a set. Do they work with the TPMS? Where did you order yours from? I assume those are the hypersilver color?

sorry to be a buzzkill but i don't have tpms in them currently (so annoying). but i park near my old set and the warning only goes off only after so many miles. but i have heard that they work with tpms, but AME claims they don't... i believe this is because when the TPMS is installed it doesn't sit flush on the wheel, instead it floats (this is all hearsay). i orderd them from Z1auto, from adam, they are unbelievably quick responding in emails. got them for a bit over 1600. only problem is they only sell them in 18x8.5 +48 because they are geared more towards EVOs on the website. Yes they are hypersilver, but the other colors offered are cool too.
