Dave: can you post more pics please. I am seriously considering either these wheels or the Motegi MR125's (16.3 pounds)
I posted close up pics

Thank you,
The Asphalt color can be tricky even with the wheels. Gloss black is the only other color that they have and I wasn't sure if it would give that stealthy shadow look properly. If they had the hyper black, matte black or gunmetal gray I might have gone with one of those colors. When not seeing them in person, you never know exactly what they are going to look like. I went safe with the silver and I wasn't sure if the silver was going to be a light bright silver. I didn't want the light bright silver. I wanted a deeper silver. It turns out, they are a grayish silver and I like them.

Do I get a rank and serial number in the Shadow Corps, Sir?

so you can put the stock tire size on 7.5" wide tires ? i wonder why tirerack says to use 225/45/17... maybe just to fill it in more ? i wonder if it does anything to use a slightly wider rim but not a tire ??

if the tire shop did it - so it must be fine

These are the stock Primacy tires. The dealer said it would work, so I'm just using up the rubber. The tires do look small for the rims. The next set of tires will probably be the Michelin Pilot Super Sport but definitely will be the 225/45/17 size.

fujin look good - im stuck between these and the PF01 - they are simlar but 200 more for pf01 -- both are nice and very close in weight .. i definitely like silver on black cars. i like the motegi 125's also but they are gray and dont think they stand out enough for blkcars. the 125's look good on white - in my opinion.

good setup ---

I got Mine today. I live in Australia. I got them for $150 plus shipping from tirerack in the US. The order was confirmed at 7:45 am on Thursday and they arived at my door at 9:45 am on the next monday. I could not be happier. I like them now even more seeing them in person.

Only $150 a wheel for the 17's is pretty awesome and only 17.1 lbs.
