    285's will look stupid with the weak offset chad,youll have stretched tyres running inside the guard :eek:,stretched bags are for rims with an aggressive offset ;)
    One tip though,spray the rotor hats before they rust :eek:

    offset is pretty much flush with the guards. i think a 275 would look best probably. i was running 255's on the other wheels and they had a worse offset but looked better than running the reccomended 235's...

    the rotors are zinc coated, will not rust :p

    what happens is that it rubs off where the wheel bolts up,then continues from there,been there ,done that :)

    NIIIIICEEEE!

    I like what you have done with them. They sit nicely for sure. I reckon spray the caps black and hit them up. You can always take them off right!?

    i'll wait till i see them in person before i decide, but they do look better than the 17s, but you should probably keep the centre caps silver instead of spreying them :biggrin:

    Centre Caps

    Chad,

    You can usually get centre caps in most style regardless of the brand of wheels. it's usually just a matter of matching the centre bore with the right diameter centre cap.

    Send me a PM if you want tyres. I can either supply you with Trade price Bridgestone or i'll point you to the right channels.

    the end.
