Got my 20" DPE R16 V2. Big thanks to Michael of Acuteperformance!!! 
Tires are Continental DWS 245/35/20 275/30/20. Sorry but I just have cell pics for now...
Getting a full drink for the road on her way to getting an alignment
Parked at work
On another note, I have a slight rubbing in dips on my rear passenger side only. Does that mean my shock there is starting to go? Can somebody confirm? I'm planning on getting some coilovers soon anyway. Car has 54K miles.

Thanks guys! The fronts are pretty flush. The rears could use about 5mm more but I hear anything less than 10mm spacers aren't really ideal. At any rate, I feel that if I push the rears out more, I'm really in danger of it rubbing especially since I sometimes have 3 kids and occasional adult passengers in the back. Right now I've experienced rubbing on the rear passenger fender liner only. And no, I don't want to take the liner off.
