All I had to do is grind the rear brakes some, wasn't to bad otherwise it was a direct bolt on. The center caps were way to long for my taste so I cut them 1.5 inchs in the rear and almost 2 in the front

You didn't have to do anything to get the fronts to fit? I like them a lot.

Nope direct fit on the front. It's more of a street wheel then race cause they are thick aluminum like any other wheel, which is kind of what I wanted because these are staying as daily driver wheels. The front were 14.7 lbs and the rear are 17.2 lbs. So they aint no bogarts but for $460 bucks for all 4 to my door I didn't complain.

That's good to know. If you can, post up a picture taken directly facing the side of the car.

This may be an option for front skinnies to go with my Dark Stars. I could always paint them black.
