I think I mentioned that I put 12.5mm spacers up front just to make them nice and flush. They're already balanced so you should be good to go!
Yeah, I really like the wider stance it gives, and the wider wheels. Somebody at the office already commented on that!

I'm going to take it to get it aligned, just to make sure all is well, but I like them. Even my wife said 'they look good'. I about fell over. She never likes anything I do to my cars!

Thanks again.

Very Nice - I love the AW color with the all-black wheels. Very sharp.

Finally got a set of aftermarket wheels so I guess it's time for me to post them up on this thread.

Vorsteiner V308's (now known as VS-350's). Thanks, Travis!!

Those look really good!

It appears to be at stock ride height. Am I correct in that assumption?

If so, it really is making me feel as though I won't need to do springs like I thought I would.

I have Dinan Stage 2 Suspension which is very conservative with its lowering springs. I think the ride height lowered by maybe 1inch tops.

and thanks for your kind words!

Love the new wheels - look sharp.

I was just going back through this thread, and noticed that my picture was no longer 'valid'. The 'link' was broken. Anybody know why this happens? I don't believe I changed anything in the album. I checked the 'current' link, versus what the page source shows, and they are definitely different:

Correct Link (now): http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/mem...wheels-put.jpg
Page Source: http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/mem...wheels-put.jpg

Hover over the links, and you can see the difference. Like I said, I didn't change anything, and I can't 'edit' my post either, so I can change it.

Just curious if anybody knows why that stopped working?

John, really interested in how you went about doing the matte look on your exhaust tips, have been trying to find someone that pulls them off great. Any suggestions?
