Default WooHoo Put on Five-Axis S5's

Just got these on, i'll shoot some more during the day -
They're 18x8.5 +30 (x4) on the awd.

I know it needs to get dropped - i'm getting some bcc coils by the end of this month.

First time I've seen gunmetal-colored wheels on that color IS, looks great.

Thanks everyone! - yeah, the tips are from the oem gfx package. It came with the rearlip I believe.

I'm thinking about putting some gunmetal accents on the body - do you guys have any suggestions? I don't want to get to the point of ricer.. or keep it way too conservative. I've been thinking about the underside of the side mirror and underside of the spoiler.

Maybe darken the emblems on the back to match the wheels.
