Sure are. The reason they look like that has more to do with the run-flat tires which have the higher and thicker side walls. Once I burn those up, it's time for some real tires. I did not want them to goto waste so I am waiting for them to get worn which I am sure will happen quickly!

Nice ride! 
What color is your car? Silver Gray or Titanium? Also, did you get a good price on the wheels? Will be in the market for some 19's so if you know of any good sites with deals, let me know! Thanks!

Thanks Avant! I purchased the wheels at tirerack and had to wait for the 18 x 10 for the rears to be made in Germany for 3 months. I paid $499.00 for the fronts and $569 for the rears. They were on sale, and the last I checked, the fronts were $620 and the rears $632.00 so I got a really good deal on them.
Don Juan, for me, it was not a mistake. I live in PA and we have the absolute WORST roads and anything bigger than 18's would just plain get eaten alive, and I really did not want to have to wreck new wheels and have to get them repaired(even though the Wheel Collision Center is only 15 minutes from me) I would have loved to get 19's but it just does not work for me for where I live.
The good thing is that I am at 1110 miles and SO close to the 1200 mile break in period. This 4500 RPM limit breakin period is KILLING ME! I want to see what this car can do!
oh, and to answer your question, the car is Silver Grey.
