Default 18" Black C5 DD on black TA

Haven't seen to many people running these, but decided to throw em on mine. Can't say that they dont look pretty darn sharp in my opinion. Sorry if its a crap picture but took it with my iPhone. Hope you guys like them and helps anyone that was wondering what they looked like. And they do also clear for the CTS-V upgrade with a 15mm spacer if anyone was interested in that also.

Awesome! These are high on my list of next possibles wheels to get and there's not too many pics of birds with em, so thx for posting. They look great and im a big fan of black on black and cts-v brake swaps, Props!

What have you done to your suspension, Wheel/Spacer Specs and tire sizes?

Looks awesome. I also have a black TA and have been looking at putting these wheels on it. I believe you have made me decide to get them.

Eibach Prokit/Bilsteins (same as the Firehawk)
18x9.5 and 18x10.5
275/35-18 Nitto 555 upfront and 295/35-18 Nitto NT05 outback
15mm Eibach spacers up front, I have 15mm for the rear but are not installed yet. I did have to BFH mod the rear wells to fit these, probably wouldnt of had to if I did put the spacers on.

Bumping an old thread, but I'm lookin for pics of the 15mm adapter/spacer in the rear if u ever installed them.. I'm running the same wheel setup and am about to pull the trigger on ordering a set, but am curious if I should go with at least 20mm.
