I got the wheels from OE wheels and I got the tires from tire rack. The total cost was around $1600-$1700 and that includes me having them mounted and balanced.

The fronts are 18x8.5 and the rears are 19x10.

Looking at the pics, I think the low ride height = SEXY
I would suggest the rear CETA as well. I was uncertain about doing mine as well. Looks better in person in my opinion. If your undecided I would suggest trying the "Car Art" paint that washes off with soap and water in black.

I don't think they do? They still tuck in the fender lip quite bit?

Car looks pretty badass though Kane, excellent taste!
