Let me be the first to say BADASS!! I like em! Personally I would have went 18" but either way it looks sweet. Nice to see some different wheels on our cars.

Looks like they came out great! Its a nice wheel that you don't see to often. Is your car lowered? Can't really judge by the picture.

Nope its stock height. When i had my DR's on the car they really filled it out but now that i have street tires i think it may be time to drop. If i do im gonna hold off until the strano springs are in stock.
and thanks for the compliments guys. Ill have better pictures up tommorrow when i have a different camera.

car looks great. make sure you get painted rotors. otherwise the rust will cover the inside of your wheel when it rains! as for color, i would do red because it looks great on calipers. i would consider some black decals to put on them too.
as for the drop, the most i would do is the heater hose mod in the rear. i drive a dropped car with wheels and sometimes it sucks most. car would look even better with tint on the front windows!!!

I like them too but the size and design shows off our ugly stck brakes. You should at least try to paint the calipers. Also I think your rear bird is fading and detracting from the blacked out rear.
