19" 3pc. DPE's just arrived! So I got my 19" DPE's today and I'm stoked! I have been waiting for them for a while and they are here, now I can get rid of the 3" wheel adapters I have.
So down to business, the wheel sizes are as followed:
FRONT: 19x9.5
REAR: 19x10.5
The tires that will be mounted tomorrow are Nitto Invos:
FRONT: 275/30/19
REAR: 305/30/19
Here are some mock up pictures I took after receiving them. I also want to mention there is about 1.5" of caliper to spoke clearance on the fronts!

REAR:
I will post pics of the tires mounted tomorrow!

LOL
Thanks, I put a lot of time thinking of what I wanted. It should pay off haha
~3" front
~6" rear
I could have gone a bit deeper on the fronts, but wanted big brake clearance...

I've come to the conclusion that these SP5s are the best looking split-spoke wheels I've ever seen. I really love the way the bottom of the spokes protrude slightly over the lip. It has a really artsy look.
JK man they look sick! Definitely one of-if not- the best wheels out there on a fbody that's for sure.

That looks great. I love that you did something different, however I know DPE's are costly. 
Don't know if this is of any relevance and of course don't want to rain on your parade, but I had a good buddy running DPE's on his GS430 and ended up bending 2 of them on random occasions. Obviously i'm not trying to hint that DPE is a bad wheel as of course it is not, but just throwing out information to you.

Envy: (also called invidiousness) is best defined as an emotion that "occurs when a person lacks another's (perceived) superior quality, achievement, or possession and either desires it or wishes that the other lacked it.".
