It took some time to find a nice set, but I am happy with my choice.

They call it chrome silver on edgeracing.com . I'll post pics when I get a chance to give my car a wash and take pics. The chrome silver is not quite the way I envisioned it. It looks more like black chrome and in my opinion, doesn't look all that great with rallye red. I am totally happy with the fitment using 235/40 though. And it looks I need a drop. I'll post pics soon.

spacers will push out the rim. u dont need um they will sit within the wheelwell just fine. HFP's the honda optional come in that size and they mout 225/40 on them no problem. no rubbin either. YOUR GOOD
