Those are some Really Nice looking wheels! Are they OEM or replicas?
Those would be OEM as he has the M-sport pack.


SamS. Do you have comfort glass on windshield? Is that Sapphire black? I see greenish tint.

Carbon Black with standard windshield

Polarizer filter screws up windshield and headlight colors. Carbon Black reflects about everything around it, so the slight green your seeing is things around the car.

Newbie here... why would you want to put additional spacers at all 4 corners... aren't the rims already spaced properly for 48i shafts?

Approx 10mm at front and 20mm at rear is definitely required to push the wheels out to a more agressive stance. Stock offsets are sometimes regarded as too conservative.....

Hey Guys,

They look great.

Just to confirm 10mm in the front and 25mm on the rear.

What brand did you get?

Cheers

H&R brand and I added only 25mm to rear , none to front...25mm is minimum to have bolt on type , 20mm needs longer wheel lugs...

Be extra careful with the side walls, they're what make your run-flats, well, "run flat!" :-)
