The problem I'm having with the color is that my diffuser is painted flat black and I plan on getting JDP carbon front lip and rear spoiler ...which are glossy.

Grr...I hate decisions.

This just blows, Score.

I would have such a wide variety if I were to go with 40mm but I'm so scared I'll rub.

There are others who have run similar setups and haven't rub--but I often carry rear passengers and cargo.

I was thinking glossy gunmetal or gunmetal polished lip would look pimpin (cuz that would match the lip/spoiler)

I want my car to look good, damn it all to hell!

I waited almost 2 months to get my wheels. At one point I almost forgot about them. But they were well worth the wait.

You dont need to rush on finding wheels you like, unless you need new tires and wanted to get new wheels and tires

It's just frustrating finding something that will fit (like I want it to) and that I like.

I'm not that picky about the looks--but I am about the fit because I dont want to deal with problems later.

I will take Rota Torque, Boost, Slipstream in gunmetal, gunmetal polished lip, hyper black...I'm flexible in all that.

Other rims I've liked but can't afford.

I don't need new tires...quite yet.

I don't mind waiting if I know I'm getting something I like and knowing that they are gonna happen.

im horrible on making decisions on buying things that cost a good amount of money. I tend to spend a shit ton of time researching and reading reviews.

Yeah--I mean, I know there are the fake wheel haters around here, but I've had 3 sets of Rotas and I can't knock them. Plus, I'm a poor teacher.

I know you can't go wrong with Slips...I'm pretty flexible with colors as you can see...I've been looking on craigslist also.

Been emailing JLB...they don't have what I want in stock right now.

16x6.5 or 16x7 4x100 45mm offset
