yep they are ADR's 19x9 up front 19x10 out back

got a pretty good deal on them... rims came from ebay (inferno wheels) they were like $569+ shipping which is cheap.. retail is about $250+ a wheel.

Tires are Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta 245/35ZR19 and 275/35ZR19.
Got those pretty cheap too... 700ish for all 4 + shipping

Thanks for the comments guys... keep em coming!

Those are some of the nicest 19" rims I've seen. Most of the time, they look out of place to me, but those look great!

They havent seen the road yet, wont until April sometime. I have heard nothign but good things about both the wheels and the tires so im hoping they will work out good. They are a little heavier than i would like... but im still keeping the stockers around anyway.
