Default Reasonable Mooncakes
They are hypersilver TSW Snettertons at just over $200 each. 18x8 - 40 offset with 225/40 g-Force Super Sport A/S on the front and 18x9.5 - 40 offset with 275/35 on the rear. The ride is better than stock and the tire are absolutely silent. What a GREAT ride!

I thought the same, but then noticed that they were 18s, not 19s. The wheels looks good, though! Funny name, but still good-looking...

Wheels, tires and locking lugs (Gorilla) to my door for $1500. Free mounting, balancing and delivery. Since I had to swap the TPMS they could not mount and balance, so they threw in the locking lugs, for free. Sweet deal!

Koz, can you take a picture of the profiles from a little further back? I'd like to see what it looks like on the car.
