PW edit ... "V12" not S12

Love the wheels! The matte black finish looks even better with your paint color. 
Btw, your tires are Hankook Ventus evo. Not sure if you have the S1 or V12
Craig, the tires are sticky fun. Puts a big grin on my face. However, they do wear out quickly...
I have the S1 vs. the V12, which has the directional tread design.
TireRack clearanced the S1 several months ago. They now have the Hankook Ventus V12 evo.
The pricing is unbeatable for 19" staggered set. I suggest you order a set now, since they had
less than 10 in stock this afternoon.

Thanks for all of the compliments guys!
I love how aggressive it makes the car look!
Seems like a whole new car, definitely a bigger head turner now.

Just wondering... Why did you F14 people pick 285 over 275 on tires?
Does that 10mm really make that much difference in performance? or just for more aggressive look?

Well I got my wheels put on today. I would like to thank Joe and Nerwyll from Trinity for all the help and constant
communication about my wheels. I would also like to thank Frank (mrfva) for all his help on picking out tires.
My setup is Forgestar F14's 19x9 and 19x10in Matte Black. My tires are Hankook's dont remember the model name.
Im on stock suspension and more than likely going to buy eibach lowering springs soon.
Enjoy.

166's (and 167's I believe) are 19 x 9.5 in the rear...
the f14's are a bit wider. hence a wider tire

JD, the Matte Black F14's look absolutely bada$$ on your ride.
275's are a great fit for a 9.5" wide rear wheel where as 285 is a better fit on a 10" wide rear wheel. 275's will work on a 10" wide wheel but I think they look stretched. It's personal preference as both will work.
