It took me a while to decide what I would like and not get bored with after a while and to determine the
style I wanted.

-I was looking at mesh concave wheels, but decided I'd like to spend less time cleaning the wheel.
-I wanted concave with some lip but not needing to get a performance wheel to get that. (Insert other concave wheels with lip choices here)
-The car won't be a track car, so spending that much more money would not have served me well.
So the right prioty was served I think.

The specs are
Concept One CS 5.0 Machined Matte Black
9F +25 245/35/20
10.5R +27 275/30/20
Falken FK-452

Oh, test fit #2 was adding a 20mm spacer on the rear wheels. So +7 effective offset.

Looks good. LOL they almost look like the CV3s but with a slit in the spoke area.

Yes, they are similar. IMO, they look great on the vert.

Good choice :)

Surprised you didn't jump on the aero-bandwagon. I thought about it but they don't come painted in IP and I don't want to deal with paying more for a repaint.

There are not many CF options for kits. This is the only one out there I know of.
I think the Aerodynamic kit comes painted all colors though if you wanted an updated look.

No, the only white they have is moonlight white which is the current color. Ivory Pearl was a 2008-only paint option.

Ohhh, ahhhh ok. Gotcha. Yeah I can see where that would be a paint/hassle to get fully repainted.

Yeah, I may end up just doing a foglight retrofit and putting a small lip on it once I have the front suspension ironed out.

I'm guessing you are looking for the perfect front height.
