Don't know how I missed the results, well here's a belated congrats Sunny, very deserving, those wheels should really look great on your ride.
Concavo really stepped up for this one, promos like this don't happen often at all so it's an awesome way to get the word out and show off your wheel lineup.
Look forward to install pics and also how you're liking those Toyos, hope you like the as much as I do.
Way to go!

Acknowledgements
I want to thank the following people for helping me out. I would like to thank Kenny "DA MAYOR" for helping me pick up this car otherwise I wouldn't be making this thread, and giving me an incredible deal on the car. The next person I would like to thank is Mike "OHH NOES" for installing all the mods on my car and for doing exceptional work which is second to none. Last but not least #TEAM CONCAVO for sponsoring me these beautiful set of wheels which complete the look of my car. Finally Brad "blnewt" for checking up on me now and again to see what I was up to.
Review (Wheel/Tire)
The Concavo CW-12 are a nice design for a Luxury+Sport Sedan. The design is very elegant and unique offering a 12 spoke design in a concave structure. Like a lot concave wheels the fronts are not that concave but the rears are deep. These wheels are VERY STRONG and trust me I have hit a few bumps that would make people cringe on the sound it made. I am by no means a careless driver I watch for bumps and potholes all the time, but these damn road repairs are unpredictable. Moving on to the finish of the wheels. These wheels came in a matte grey with a machined finish. When I first got these wheels I didn't know what a machined finish looked like. The face of the wheels is grooved, but so small that it looks smooth when you look at it but when you touch it you can feel it (it adds to the look of the wheels) which is very easy to clean. However the inside where it is grey I have a very hard time cleaning the wheels. I wash my car almost every two weeks and give the wheels a thorough cleaning but the insides of the spokes are magnets for brake dust and it is not distributed evenly over the whole side but accumulates in one particular area which makes it really hard to clean, and after cleaning it does not look as if I cleaned evenly. Well I have tried a couple different combos of wheel cleaner and some work better than other but that is a different thread altogether.
Moving on to fitment as this is very important to pull off a certain look. The sizes I chose were 20x9 +20 W/ 245/35/20 for the fronts and 20x10.5 +45 W/ 275/30/20 for the rear. There was a more aggressive option for the rear but I did not want to stretch the tires because my car is a daily driver and wanted as much tire as possible on the ground. To remedy the higher rear offset I used a 10mm H&R DRS spacer and got the flush fit I was looking for. I still have some room to work with in the front but for now it is fine. Oh and did I mention there is no rubbing front or back
The tires I chose were TOYO PROXES 4 PLUS in a 245/275 setup. The tires themselves are reasonably priced, and since I have had positive experience with TOYO's previous version of the proxes I thought I'd give these a chance as well. Overall its a decent all season tire with a good amount of grip in warm-hot weather, but in the rain they DO NOT inspire confidence. However there are a few reasons which I think can be the cause of this problem 1. negative camber (the whole tire does not touch the ground) 2. the car is has the power to spin the wheels on take off when its wet outside 3. I didn't get a wider tire
. I have not yet experienced cold weather or snow with these yet so I need to get back to you on that, but I will be trying these out this winter in the snow and the varying cold temperatures that NY has to offer. Comfort is a very strong point for these tires. They are not harsh or noisy at any speeds and they offer a smooth ride. I had a set of Kumho Ecsta summer tires on my Vossens last year and they made me want to rip my hair out (IM BALD) they were so noisy and uncomfortable. With these its a pleasant ride overall with good warm-hot weather grip.
Most of these pictures I have taken myself and tried to edit but I am not a photographer by any means. There are some that were taken professionally back in march but never got around to posting them. I would like to know what you think and what I can improve on. I welcome comments and criticism so please be honest. Soon I will have another thread with dyno graphs and performance mods that have been done to the car. Let me know if I have missed anything as I will try to answer all your questions to the best of my ability.
