Glad to see you finally got the wheels on and they look great. Have you considered a drop? I think it would complete the look.

Paint the aero diffuser on the rear bumper black - that'll be a nice touch

I'm still thinking about dropping it a bit.

Still thinking of replacing the rear diffuser with a carbon fiber one and get a quad exhaust setup.

Ok, I'm sorry if this upsets you, but I think those original 172 19s looked better on your car...

That said, the rims do look gorgeous, and the color combo is hot! No doubt about that
So sorry, but I have to agree, I like the originals better. But, that's why there are so many wheel choices, not everyone likes the same thing.
