What finish will you be going with? Black? And, what tire would you run in the rear? I'm curious if 10.5 will be pushing the width to the point you'll get rubbing. Regardless, I'm guessing it's going to look bad ass when it's done!

Not a fan of black rims at all. I went with diamond edition. Should have been pictures with that post.

Looks great, especially since you have the chrome window trim! Did you get replacement side markers in black? If so, where did you get them? I have an Alpine White Gran Coupe, too, but I have the stormtrooper look with the black wheels, and I'm considering blacking out all the remaining chrome, which would include the door handle inserts and the side markers.

So, no rubbing issues? I love how they fill up the fender!

No rubbing at all. Gonna drop it here soon which should look more aggressive

The blacked out side markers is just black plasti-dip which sounds funny on a 100k car but it looks good.

Looks really nice! The plastidip doesn't sound that odd to me, actually. I've used it on my truck, and I considered using it on my GC, too. I still had some vinyl tape left, so I used that instead on the reflectors, since it was a bit easier to install and remove. I may just use vinyl or plastidip on the side marker.

The wheel spacers I used gave it the nice flush look I was going for, but it probably could use some lowering, too.

Sorry for the black wheels, but here are a few shots of mine.

Hey DrewBert, looking good. Am not a fan of black shoes either. What size tyres you running on those rims?

Nice wheels! Yeah I am no longer a fan of the blacked out look. Mainly because you really cant see the lines or definition of the wheels, at night they just look like 4 black holes. I went with Inovit Force 5 wheels machined face and black, 20x8.5F/35mm, & 20x10R/40mm. Tires are Hankook V12 245/40/20F & 285/35/20 RS-3's. IMO the car sits and rides like perfection.
