So... teaching moment for you. Everyone has been a d1ck on the forum before. It happens.

Wait, except blnewt. That guy is a freaking saint.

No kidding! Always the gentleman. LOL

I remember how I kinda berated a guy for trying to sell his Uprev license and cable. Not knowing that you can actually do it, I figured it was a punk @as kid trying to rip someone off. Mr. Black Betty put me straight on the issue though. I apologized and begged for forgiveness from the chap. All is well that ends well, I guess.

Gonna go with the VVC CV2 matte black with stainless tip on hankook v12 tires.

Contacted vossen for the nearest dealer but they couldn't locate one in maine so they referred me to wheelsperformance.com.

Anyone order from them before? The Rep seems courthouse and knowlegable.

I believe need4speed (a vendor on here) sells Vossen, I'm pretty sure Rochester ordered his from them.

N4S will give you good pricing, and itemize whole items; (total for all wheels, total for all tires, etc.). GetYourWheels will give you comparable pricing, and actually itemize individual wheel prices on their website, but they get fuzzy with the itemization of "free shipping" and services like balancing.

Both are good, IMO.

Still waiting for Winter to end. It's looking like I'll be putting them on the car this weekend. In the meantime, here they are on my dining room table, LOL.

Nice looking wheels there, Rochester!

What size tire are you running for the rear?

Fronts: 19" x 8.5" +32, 5x114.3, 245/40ZR19
Rears: 19" x 10.0" +42, 5x114.3, 275/35ZR19

Wheels went on the car yesterday. Fronts are crazy tight to the calipers, like with a 1/16" clearance. Fronts are also perfectly flush with the fender, albeit there's OEM gap. Rears poke 1/2" or more, because un-dropped.

They're stationed in CA, I'm afraid shipping these type of items cross country will be expensive.
