what will these look like on my max? opinions

Thought i would update this thread with pics to see what everyone thinks instead of making a new one. Got the wheels on monday and the tires still smell Brand new. If anyone wants my TE wheels feel free to make me a reasonable offer.

Like the rim don't care for the face of the tire though. Your car is lowered right?

Id buy em for that price and if he's right about the tires thats definatly a steal you got on your hands if the rims arent all messed up.

yeah theres plenty of people lowered on 19's. Until i can get coilovers im just lowering my front because its about 2" higher than my rear. I think my carbon fiber hood is to blame for that. Then when i put headers on i think that will make my front sit even higher. So for now its eibachs in the front with stock struts till they blow.

ok well i have been looking around for 2x 235/35-19 tires to match the 2 good falken tires that are already on there and i came across some bridgestones that are on sale for $150 apiece. Only thing is they are 245-35/19. would you be able to tell a big difference if i would put those either on the back or on the front? i was going to just buy some general exclaims that are 235/35-19 that have good reviews on tirerack for 127 but if i could spend a few more bucks and get a better name i will. just not sure about the tire size difference. should i just look for some falken 512's to match the 2 good ones?

i havent decided if im going to sell my TE wheels or not. I planned on keeping them for winter wheels or if i ever decided to sell the 19's. It all depends on how much i like these new wheels on my car and how rough they ride while being lowered.

IMO its pretty good, not a fan of the super slim tires either, black out the clear corners too. For the most part its looking pretty good.

Thanks guys, i have been meaning to buy the smoked corner lights from CE for awhile now. i have always hated the clear ones on my car. the tires are 235/35-19 and when they are shot i'll be buying 245/35-19's so they'll look a little bigger. i might even buy 2 245/35-19 for the back and leave the good 235/35-19 on the front for awhile.

Those don't look half bad; I love darker spokes with a polished lip. I don't know how much I like the actual design, but the finish looks great with your car.

As for smoking out your lights, check this guy out:
