I don't go to the track nor drive 10/10ths on public roads so any difference handling away from what was intended with a narrower track is negligible. As long as it still handles safely and tread wears evenly I'm good.

Exactly my complaint. That's another $2.5k on top of paying for stock wheels. The #1 reason I won't put down a deposit down: the stock wheels don't look like they belong on this car. Hoping something better will be included in a future trim so I only pay for 1 set of wheels/tires...

My problem with flush fitment is when the front wheels are turning it kicks a lot of debris on the side of the car. My evo had that problem where my rear fender had lots of rock chips from the front tires kicking up rocks.
