OK, so these are the real deal. 23 inch Hamann, not knock offs, not modified by a workshop, not a custom job. Just Edition Race as it comes from the factory in curb attracting 23 inches... hope you guys like them.

Car rides not much harder than the run flats in 18 inch surprisingly. And all that extra width of rubber sure helps around the corners...

aren't there tires with little more sidewall and a little wider that will stick out just a smidge more to alleviate the curb rash effect?

the tires on there now sort of look like they slant backward away from the edge of the rim sort of like this "\"....

Thanks. great looking wheels though. Some spacers would be sweet.

The tires were actually shipped together with the wheels from Hamann direct. As such they are apparently what Hamann wants the rims to ride on... will definitely look at some different tires when these wear out.

As for spacers I dont think I can as they already completely fill out the extended arches and I dont want them to look like buggy tires sticking beyond the arches.
