1st thought is to put a pic on here we can actually see What type of mesh wheels did you go with? What widths are they?

I went with the MRR GT7. 19x8.5 245/35 and 19x9.5 275/30. What's the best way to post good pics? #newtoforum

I upload the pictures to my photobucket account and then copy the "image" link and paste it in the thread.

By the way, from what I can see, I like them.

Thanks for the kind words....took me forever to make a decision once the bosslady (wife) gave me the go ahead

Thanks for the work on the pic HardBones

@RiseofthePhoenix, after it was all said and done the wheels were about $1300 for the set, they do come in black but ALL black. The lip isn't polished...at least the sets I've seen.

Thanks for the better pics -- they look great! Would you mind providing the specs on the front wheels? (size of wheel, tires, and offset). Any rubbing up front?

Nice wheels!
I see that MRR has them in a 18 x9.5, +35mm offset also.
The black version also looks nice.
