Im starting this off by saying these pictures DO NOT do these wheels justice. They look so so much better in person. Part of what makes these wheel look crazy in person is how staggered they look. The front is 16x7 and the center actually sticks out about a half inch further then the rim lip. The rear is 17x8 and the center is sunken in about an inch. This make it look more staggered then it is. I wish the photos could capture the discs more. In person the gold discs really pop and you can see them from a decent distance.
So I picked up some kodiak wheels and gold ultra discs thought I would share. 16x7 31mm offset 17x8 38mm offset 195/50/16 R888 245/40/17 R888 sector111 ultra discs all corners The 245's fit in back with no problem and im considerably lowered. Enjoy ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I want to but have not had time to list. Tires are still in great shape and all. Send me a pm madden if interested.
As for being lowered. 115mm front and 118mm in back only driven on the street so its lower then most. These tires are different sizes then i was running so it did change it though. The rear always looks high and even more so on the right side so it must be the clam? idk you be the judge.

Wow, your car looks clean! I didn't like the Kodiak's at first because the face on the front wheels stuck out so much, but the black covers it up nicely and it seems that it makes the back lip look deeper. Just got to get rid of those side mirrors!

I agree with everything you said. How the front sticks out i thought would look really stupid but everybody who has seen them in person really like it.

Hey A7594217, I am planning on powder coating my Kodiaks gloss black (both the face and the lip). How much did it cost you to get the faces done? PM me if you'd like. Also are those bolts polished?
