Well the good thing is I'm pretty certain it's down to a 2 wheel choice -
These in titanium (19") The new CSL reps (18") - finishes are still tbd so maybe it won't stay an option If I lived somewhere where the roads were smooth it would be 19s all the way, but I already ripped a tire on a bad RR crossing so I'm hesitant. Now if those 1 piecers from Vorstiener show up soon with the right fitments...

I debated over silver vs. gunmetal and did a couple of quickie photoshops changing silverbullet's car to white (hope he won't mind). And I really like the look, plus I won't be such a slave to brakedust cleanup any more.

Silverbullet's car is running 235/265 tires without rubbing and he is lowered on KW V2, I believe.

Thanks for the images!!! This is a really cool wheel and I'm excited about it. It's a really tough decision for me because I keep going back to those black/white forgelines....talk about a slave to brake dust!!!

Can someone tell what tires silverbullet is running from the closeup pic? I just ordered these wheels and am debating about the 235/265 or a more conservative 225/255 tire combo. I know some tire brands run wider than others. Thinking about Falken FK 451 or Yoko S-Drives.

I don't think we even know for sure what offset Silverbullet is running, much less tires or brand.
Falkens run very small. I've have 235/35 Falkens on my 19x8.5 et40 front without rubbing. I assume with a slightly better offset you might can run a 245 Falken but not many other tire brands. |

Here's a black and grey combo showing a CSL rep, not the Forgestar wheel. Looks good, if my car was black that's the combo I would do.
