Im test fitting this wheel on the rear driver side. It sits flat on the mounting face and clears stock brakes and suspension.

1) what do you guys think of this wheel spec? I like the look of the wheels, but the specs seem very similar to stock.

2) Later on when I get lowering springs or coils will there be any interference issues?

3) Will the stock Primacy's fit on these wheels? From what I've searched I think they will.

Personally I'd just stay stock than spend money on those, unless you are in love with them. If only thing keeping you interested is price, pass on it. Don't be like my sister having countless things she doesn't use or need, but buys because of how much she saved buying it lol.

Last pic is normal

I think the reason the lugs might not be working is because the stock lugs are not "tuner" style lugs which are needed for aftermarket wheels.

That offset is pretty conservative, the stock offset is +48. I'm running +45 on my 17x9 wheels. But yeah with a narrow wheel like that the +50 offset is going to mean it's going to appear quite sucked in.

Yeah figured I needed some type of tuner lugs or open ended lugs where the socket goes on the inside. Any recommendations? Gonna get spacers later on for flush look.

Picked up black tuner lugs and mounted the wheel. I like the look. I'm like 99% certain I'll be pulling the trigger on these. Here's some pics:Attachment 70705Attachment 70706

You can get a much better setup and it doesn't make sense to buy something if you are going to want to replace it soon... I really wouldn't do it man it looks so sunken to me.
But if you like the sunk look go for it...
