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.

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.
