Can't see the pic man, but get it working please because these are on top of my wheel list and have only seen them on a whiteout.

Looks perfect man, good job with the 17's. I'm pretty much dead set on these wheels now, should look good on Asphalt too. What size tires and suspension setup are you running?

I'm running Kumho Ecsta SPTs' 215/40/17s all the way around, the suspension is Fortune Auto coilovers. Feels good, quick steer, real responsive, probably could've gone with 45 series tires but the front looked like it would rub when dropped the way I like it, I think Falcons sidewall falls in better on the stretch for drop set-ups.

I'm about to add these to the Wheel Directory, but not sure if these are 57Maximum or 57DR. Let me know which.

Your car looks great. Did you have any issues with 215/40/17 stretch on your wheels? Any issues at all with wheel diameter or ride?
