Looks good but 265 wide ? Struth ! That would cost a pretty penny.

Those are some nice looking wheels!
I think the back needs to be dropped just a bit more, the front looks lower. How much did those run in price for you? -RyanG |

Please post these pictures up so the boneheads running 205 tires on a 10"+ wheel can understand functional fitment. This is a proper setup.
On a side note; did you notice any power loss? Car feel slower? Less fun to drive with all that grip? |

You can say there's a tad bit of a drag compared to the stock 17" wheels in the range of 1k-2.5k rpm range, but no power loss. When these wheels start to roll, you'll hardly notice any difference from the 17" wheels. |
