In short, the front rims are not the rims I ordered. The vendor offered to make it right. I told them I'd just keep these in exchange for a discount.

Edit: This pic was today when I got to work in NC after driving 700 miles from Tampa. The car is covered in pollen.

Yeah, it's a CL vendor. It appears the mistake happened between the vendor's supplier and Rays. I'm not upset. No more pics yet. I haven't had time. I spent the last few days putting on CQuartz and worked right up until I went to sleep yesterday. I got up at 2am and drove back to NC. I'm at work right now.

265/35 on the front. I'm happy with the 44 offset. The only reason I went with a smaller offset in the first place was to get a more concave face. But after seeing them I liked them as is, and I took it as a sign that I was supposed to get the 44 offset.

Definitely looks great, I'm assuming it being the wrong wheel means wrong offset or something of that nature? Or is it the wrong style/face?

Yeah, it's wrong offset on the front and by extension also the wrong face. However, +44 is probably the best offset for a 9.5" rim on the front. It doesn't change the scrub radius from stock. That's the offset I was going with in the beginning until I seen the faces.

The face on the +44 isn't as concave as +35. It doesn't bother me now. But when I ordered these in September I had a different view. It's pretty flush, but could use a few more millimeters to be perfect. I could have made them fix the mistake, but I decided to keep these. I like them now that I have them.

I like it, it looks pretty damn good. What rear tire size are you running, 305?

Sure thing. Once I get some free time that would be great. I didn't even leave my garage on this trip though...

Actually it's a 285.

I was surprised too. The tires look meatier than I was expecting on these wider rims. I was planning on going wider, but I think I'll keep these sizes.

Thanks! I still have work to do. I haven't gotten around to deleting the chrome yet (also matte black). I have the stuff though. It took me longer to do the CQuartz + Prep than I anticipated or else it would have been done this week.
