Default New 20" Vossen wheels installed (Pics inside)

My new Vossen 078 wheels. The wheels are 20x9" et25 front with a 255/30/20 and 20x10.5 et30 rear with 285/30/20. I know the tires are different brand front and rear but the matching front Yokohama's are on back order. I wanted them installed when they came in and since the tire store told me about the tire problem, I had them put on the more expensive INVO's. The car is still stock height for now, but I have some Tein's CST's ordered so hopefully I get those on pretty soon. I am very happy with them so far. And I think I will love them when it it lowered.

Thanks!!

I still can't get over what a difference changing the wheels does for the looks of the car.

i wanna to see more pics with coilovers installed. it definitely needs to be lowered....a lot.

do you have rolled fenders. you might need to do that once its lowered.

it looks amazing. i wish i had those on my sc300...with a tire stretch, rolled and pulled fenders, and slammed for that amazing JDM VIP look.

keep up awesome work.

i luv da rims w/ those deep lip action sides.
the 5-spoke brings out the "sportiness" of the entire car.
Plus, you have a rare "hot red" that stands out very nicely.

sweet ride.....

Thanks for the comments everyone.

Still waiting on the Tein's I can't tell you how many times I have checked my tracking number to see when they get here lol. I am thinking on what to do for the brakes next. I know I need to do something I notice a little vibration when I hit the brakes now.

Amazing look. The wheels completely change the look of the car. Damn I'm jealous of the hot red paint.
