It sure is. That's matte gunmetal.

Great i am also have a same setup as you are but my Vossen VSF01 with +38 offset i think i am going to swith to 245-35-20, what about the back? Do you think we can go 285-30-20? Right now i have 275-30-20 and look like we might can fit 285-30-20?

Looks like 285 should not be an issue. Here's what I found on will they fit com:




Let me also add though, if your rear strut starts to fail, you may have some rubbing. Right now my rear struts look like they have failed and are leaking. I I'm not rubbing yet but it is lower than what it should be.
