at first glance it looks almost like "regular" silver wheels--but look a lot nicer when you realize they're white! i like 'em!

like others are saying, it'd look A LOT better lowered--or at least with sport package suspension. even if it's a lease, you should have no problem swapping the springs back to stock when the lease is up. a lot of people still lower their leased cars.

also, are your tire sizes correct? 245/30 and 275/30?

The tire sizes are not correct. I bought the wheels as a package deal. I would like to have a 245/35 and a 285 or 295/30 but the tires are in excellent condition about 95%tread left so mabe next summer.

Does that do anything to the car and the camber of the wheels, since they are not correct? What happens when you use the wrong tire sizes on a car, especially on a staggered set up? Curious to know...
