New Wheels and Tires!!
Just wanted to post up some pictures of the new wheels and tires. So far I'm SUPER happy with them!
Getting it lowered this week. Just debating how much of a drop I want.
Wheels: TSW Strip staggered with 20x8.5s on the front and 20x10s in the back.
Tires: Nitto NT555s 255/35/20 front and 275/35/20 rear.

Thanks everyone!
I was a little apprehensive about the rivets too. But, since I bought the car, she's been getting bi-weekly "spa" treatments. The auto-spa I take the car to does a phenomenal job and I always see other cars with rivets in the wheels as well. They really take their time to make sure EVERYTHING is detailed.
I'm dropping the car off this evening to have the pro kit, camber kit, and adj. panhard put in. I'll post more pictures once I pick her up tomorrow.

Those look amazing. Do you know what the offsets are? They fit nice and flush! Did you buy them locally or online? I'm probably going with some TSW's in the spring and am confused by all the different offsets listed on their site.

Pro-Kit Installed!
I had the pro-kit installed a couple of days ago, but today is the first day without rain. Finally got a chance to have the car detailed and find somewhere for a few new pictures.

The car looks great sir!
Just be careful parking now that you have it lowered. I have learned to pull into a parking spot with empty spaces on my left, then I can spot the line and compare where it crosses my side-view mirror, so I know how far to pull in without my front end crossing the line. That way you don't damage the chin spoiler.
I've seen several cars that pulled in over the curb, and when they try to back out the curb rips half the front end off the car!
