Looks nice in blue! Always wondered how the color match to the azure blue would be on those style XXR. Guess my question is answered I have them in red and they color match the code res on my coupe pretty good.

So..what size wheels? 18x8.5 +35 offset with a 2" lip?

Ahhhhhh yes, Brembo $$$$ I just worry about the paint holding up. Ive tried painting in the past and it seems to get crappy looking as time goes on...

nah ur fine just get the d2 brake caliper painting kit. Itll take a day to do bc of drying but it works trust me the paint will hold up just fine bc its not a spray on you use a brush. PLUSm you dont need to sand anything down....idk y anyone would??

BTW love the rims matches VERY well

Although i feel like these rims would be better in 19s bc idk y but they just seem like tiny 18s

My choices for size were either 18s or 20s......no 19 available.....but hey, as long as it's "proportional tiny" I'm happy
