I was warned about getting et45 for the rear, but decided to still get the vmr 701 as opposed to the 710 with et 50 as I would much prefer the look of the 701. I think the 710 would have been fine with 255 tyre. I didn't get the falken or the toyo as I wanted 255/30/19 to be close to the stock diameter, and neither falken nor toyo comes in that size.

Thanks for all the positive comments.
I personally do like the V701's over the V710's a well... Maybe its that simple straight spoke design that gets me...

On the other hand, Toyo T1R's do actually offer a 255/30/19 size. Maybe you can keep it in mind for your next set of tires.

Ha Ha, getting too common, aren't they? For good reason I think, as they are simple, elegant, yet the spokes have pretty aggressive curvature.

Just had another look. The storm grey is fairly close to the brake caliper colour, but the caliper is a shade darker, with a bit more blue, more metallic, and more gloss. The storm grey is more like solid grey, but with a bit of metallic, and semi gloss finish I would say. Hard to explain, and my camera is crap. From memory, might be close to some Audi wheels colour? Forgot which one.

edit: Looking at the photo below, the wheel colour is darker than what the photo is showing.

Laughing at the continued use of the word "chamber" in this thread.
