Rip, Looks good! I'm still trying to decide what wheels to get for my MY11 Vermilion Red 35d.

Looks good. What size tires are these? same as the oem 20's?

do you think I can get away with an all fronts (non staggered) set and avoid changing the flares?

Yup same as OEM 20". Front are 275/40/20 and rears are 315/35/20.

You shouldnt have any problems going with 275/40/20 without changing the flares. There is person on this forum that did that..got to find the post.

I like the sport roof racks that are flush. The standard roof racks leave a gap where it is a pain to get the snow off and the rain still drips all over you when you open the door and onto your seat when getting in. The sport roof racks don't have the same issue.

Daripper. Your car looks SWEET!!!! The wheels look nice. Looks easier to clean than the 214's.

Completely agree. The standard roof rack gap make it hard to clean the car too! Getting that towel in there or waxing is a pain!

Does anyone know if the sport roof rails (ones that fit flush) use the same mounting points as the regular ones ?

I was curious on doing that as well. I prefer the streamlined look of the sport rails plus they are brushed aluminum vs black. I'm thinking the cost might be higher than the standard black ones, as for mounting points I'd assume they are the same.
