Just a note, this is a flush setup, well as flush as you can get with 275/245 tires before rubbing. If you want to poke the tires, I'd suggest +15 offset - front and +25 offset rear.
The 265/235 tires will stretch nice but subtle. Of course dropped at about 2 inches with some negative camber. I'm about function over looks. This was the best of both worlds. I can also put on 5 MM hub-centric spacers if I decide to poke the rims. So a win win for me. And yes these are the rims biggest sizes in width. And they do not look like CV3s. Totally unique design. Love em!
Nice aggressive fit!
The wheels have an interesting deception going on, the chrome spokes going all the way to the outside edge w/ the black barrel make the wheels look even bigger, almost looks like they're 22s.
Good looking coupe you've built.
Thanks Blnewt! Yeah the spokes go all the way to edge. And they also stand about 2mm out from lip edge. Just a note these are machined so they have a machined finish. I dint get chrome because it would be too flashy and more weight, just wanted to clarify for all since Lexani is known to go to town with chrome!(lol!) These wheels look bad *** on just about any car, do a Google to see all the cars with them on. If you where ever considering CV3s, this may be your alternative. I love them way more, think they look better period.

Those wheels really go well w/ the rest of your build, got some close ups of your calipers?
Really liking the way everything has come together on this one, just badas$!

Thanks man! The other XIX wheels I had did not give the car the attention these do. I'm blown away at how good they fit my cars look. Anyways I added the photo close-up of the front wheel with large BB kit UP TOP ^^^^ in original post. I custom painted this myself. Looks so shinny because I used "perfect match" (Duplicolor clearcoat) about 4 coats and finger wet-sanded with 2000 and polished with Meguiars ultimate compound. Yeah that's spray paint And its been there for 2+ years no issues. Its Duplicolor Hi-temp Plum Purple. I don't like to look like the others. Try to be unique. Red and Yellow brake calipers are too way overplayed. There are other colors everyone haha!
PS: Here is my brake calipers when I just painted them, this is a shot with the sun hitting them:

Looks very nice. What's up man, I thought you painted the grill with duplicolor shadow?
Sup man long time! Thanks! I did paint it black chrome. I painted the inner blades black chrome like midnight grill style. Its lighter in color in direct light, darker in color in low lighting. Thats also held up great.
