Default Finally got my wheels!!!

So got my Lorenzos mounted today and for being +40 offset they turned out nice, what do you guys think? or should I get some 5mm spacers and make them +35, keep in mind am gonna throw some H&R springs too...

you should definitely get lowering springs first. See how it looks and then decide if you want spacers

That looks great. Wheel and tire specs please. Also is that stock height then? It's not as big of a gap as I thought it would be but could be camera angles too.

After you put the springs on take another picture, because 5mm spacers seem kinda small im curious how it look after the drop. But lookin good!

make sure u put some wheel locks on... people will try to steal them. i know a couple of people that still got their wheels stolen with LOCKS on too.... locks arent guarantee but they do give it some kina protection
