Extremely satisfied. It took a few minutes to get used to the new look, but I definitely like it better than my black Enkei's. Black looks great on SWP, but it just got boring after a while. These wheels look simply bad ass in person. I'm really happy I went with the staggered setup too. Both the front and rear sit perfectly IMO and I was finally able to get rid of my wheel spacers!
I'm also really glad I didn't buy 2 new rear tires. Keeping the same 4 tires all around looks perfectly natural to me. That decision saved me over $400.

lots of pages ive been going through and this is the setup im considering "if it works", i need pics and feed back to figure out.
-default setup is 530s 18x8.75 +33/35 square with 235/40/18...will have full coilovers, but thats another decision for another thread lol
-now if poke is minimal front and rear and no rubbing or fender mods required, i was contemplating the same setup but with staggered offset +35 front and +20 rear, my thinking is that this will give a staggered appearence w/o actually being staggered, also idk if the concavity will be affected by the change in offset on the rear wheel as well, your help is appreciated thank you

this is where pics and feedback come in please help thanks in advance

just a follow up...post #790 and #834 show rear poke of +20 and +35 respectively, plus the + 20 is using a narrower tire in 225 vs the 235 in #834 with +35, so is i only wanted a slight more poke in rear with the 235s would a spacer do the trick? like 5mm? idk

on the 8.75" you need an offset of about 30 for flush in the rear, 35 for the front. Any lower obviously will start poking.
