Your setup is good although almost at the edge of rubbbing I would say.
It is close to the most aggressive wheel setup without modding the fender.

I think that Jimmy [YEAH!] is considering it - Jimmy?

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it, but I know you will all have fun. The rest of us appreciate the CA folks sharing your cruise photos with us - great times.

Thanks - since I just had my alighment redone, I'll probably run with this heighth for a while and then maybe drop another 1/2" later. Are any of the So Texas members going to CA for the Monterey ride?

Nice wheels for a nice car. Looks like IForged has copied every HRE style. That's okay, looks great.

Looks good Cecil! The brushed aluminum finish matches the silver very nicely.

At first, I was seriously considering it however just the thought of trying to avoid jacked up craters & flying debris/rocks alarms me. Thus, I'm going to pass on this road trip. Like Cecil said, pics would be great to see afterwards though.

In fact, this picture of the Variants on a Porche was what interested me in them in the first place.

Cecil sorry I'm late to the party but the wheels look great and the fitment is dead on! Thanks alot for your business and I'm glad you went with the tires that I recommended for you, as I built the wheels specifically for them. Enjoy and I'll have our webmaster add these to the site.

Looks like you took those pics out at lake Grapevine? I was just in that same spot yesterday . We stayed at the ******* for Newyears. The wheels look slammin'. Congrats on the purchase and good luck keeping those lips polished. It is a lot of work but well worth it. Watch out for those nasty curbs as well. I am so paranoid about my wheels that my wife thinks I am crazy .
