Face 1. You can make it fit by pulling fender or camber kit which it's not out yet for our car...

Tire size are 235/35/19, 265/30/19

Acceleration is awesome as they are only 19.x lbs each wheel, ride quality is about the same with OEM tires but you do feel the acceleration is much much faster. I am planning to removing the spare tires to reduce the weight a bit more.
Pulled the trigger and ordered today !
F : 19x8.5 Inset 35 (Face 1)
R: 19x9.5 Inset 42 (Face 3)
Price here is approx. US$750 per pc ...
Hope i can feel the benefits of the lightweight ...

That was the spec i wanted to order at the beginning. Awesome man cant wait to see how it goes...keep us all updated when u put the wheels on. I will be throwing on a pair of 20mm eibach bolt on spacers to the front. Added 5mm at the rear, looks amazing

Can't wait , I'll post pics once I get the wheels ... Still waiting for the advice of the delivery date..
I'm hesitant on spacers in fear if vibration problems... Anyway I'm sure u would have sorted it out
My car is lowered with RSR springs but I'm not happy with the drop... Hunting for coil over now
Might go with either Tein or HKS .... How's your KW ?
Btw, I'm still waiting waiting for your pics !!! Lol
