Nice Mike...

So what did you go with on the front and rear for those that will want a staggered set up on AWD like you. Looks hot man! 19" looks much better then the 18 did

you have the white twin of my car

thanks Mike I really gotta get creative with taking pictures, feels like the same shot everytime I take them.

I didn't end up going staggered because the black ones doesn't come with staggered set up, only the grey ones did, and i didn't really like the grey ones.

One of these days, i'm gonna drive down to IL from MI and we'll definitly go for a photoshoot

the width are 8's, that's the only width the black one comes in, and I only wanted black The forge grey and hyper silver both comes with 9.5's. I really wish the black ones are available in 9.5's, i'd definitly gone staggered! The offsets are 40's. 25 offset is available for the rears staggered, bigger lip in the back is definitly nice

thanks for the info!! i noticed they have +30 for 19x8... im probably gonna get that for the fronts.. do you think you have room right now for another 10 offset??

and im also gonna go 19x9.5 +40 for rear.. hope it fits with no rolling.. what tire you running on them btw

i'll check again, the front looks pretty tight, but still has space left. I went with the general exclaim UHP's, some great reviews on them, i'll have more feedback after a couple k's. yeah, except for the blacks, other colors have more options with sizing and offsets. I'm pretty sure the back you can go 25 offset.

So Great to see pictures of GFM ISX50's with great mods! Lucky for me I get to see some great examples on this forum so far! Love the front lip, and can never go wrong with the black on white combo
