Default LOOK at the wheels im getting!!

I just won the bid for these on ebay! I think they will go awesome on my 01 black ss. They are 18x9.5s all around with 265 kuhmos up front and 295 michilen ps2s. now all i need to do is lower it a little bit. Any opinions on what springs to get.

They look MUCH better than some of the other crap I have seen on this site. If you don't like them, then what exactly is the point in your post?
