Default New Wheels, What do you think

Just got a new set of wheels and tires. They are Kazera, 18"x9.5" and 8.5". Tires are Falken 115's 245/40 and 275/35. These pictures are not to good but I will take better ones when the sun comes up. I have the L-tuned springs ordered so the drop is coming soon.

Tint is not limo. It does not look that dark when outside. It is one shade past legal in Colorado.

Default looks good

Looks good, but its a little dark in the garage, Think you can get some pics outside in the light and maybe get a pic where we can see how the lip is? Are they heavy?

They seem to be good quality. Brandon at tire rack said they were a quality rim. They weigh about 24lb front and 26lb rear.
