been searching and searching and searching and found this set of RH R7 for 650 so i couldn't resist. Yes, tires cost me 750 mounted. For a total of 1400 still cheaper than i was gonna get Axis 19s for 1850 including tires. Tires are FK-452 at 245/40/19. They didn't have 235/40/19 so. Aniway, these are dark gunmetal, not black, just look that way in the gloomy day. Enough ramblings, here's a pic to share. Oh yea, got the hub caps but waiting for them to get me some RH logo stickers to put on there.Oh yes, I know about the wheel gap, and yes i do plan to drop if it doesn't rub. They're 19x8. Any 2.5ers want to buy my stock wheels ? They got 7K miles only!!



close up view, wish i could get a deeper lip, buy a G then, doh



offsets are +38 all around, here's how it flushed in

oh, those are the fender guards or watever they're called. Came with the car strangely my car has all sort of stuff that it came w/ like the pinstripes, moonroof deflector which i removed, those fender guards, and wheel locks!! lolz, Robert was telling "nobody ain't gonna steal your stock wheels, Johnny". I was like eh, i didn't put them on there. Got the best price around for it though, only 400 over invoice (w/o those freebies) at the time

Nice wheels dude. Can't wait to see how huge of a difference it will make with the RH center logo.

That looks good Johnny, good choice. Great buy.

I think you need to give them a wash though.

Really like your wheels and the deal you got. Ive been looking for wheels for my A/C before I even bought it and I still can't make a decision. Would be nice if a nice deal popped out of nowhere anytime soon :D
