I'm with nysupraman. I liked it before because the space between fender and tire is "even" all around. Ride looks really good though.

Thanks for the constructive comments, and good acknowledgements. Well here in California it's not all to easy to ride as low especially on the 10 fwy. The suspension i'm using doesn't make it any easier, Tein Super Sports, for anyone who is planning on buying coilovers these are a bit rough, but adjustability is a plus.

JimmyXthai you have a great taste in wheels also

New sidewall is due to clearing the rear quarter panel without any panel pulling, installed is a 255x30 19 series tire, but maybe next time I'll try 265x30 19. With these new set of tires it is quite stretched.

Cost of the wheel was a little $2k, a friend hooked it up.
