Just got them today, 17x7, wheel name is Mangels, I forgot the manufacturer, it's in my car and the snow is coming down more heavy. I'll have the info for you guys when I take some day shots and when it's not snowing later. The color is pretty much perfectly matched to the ASM. Not really name brand I know, but I got a good deal at Town Fair Tire. And before everyone tells me, I know I need a drop. I'll prob wait 'till Spring time for that, the gap isn't as bad as the picture makes it out to be, it's just the angle and my drive way is on an incline as well.

What size of tires are those? Could be the picture, but it looks like a 40-series tire to me.

Look too much like stock rims for me.

That's exactly why I got them. It's a lot like the stock EX wheel but more rounded and 17" as opposed to 16". I had a DX though on 15" steelies, anything is an upgrade in the looks department from that. Also there are two rivets on either side of each spoke that are chrome. In the day time they reflect pretty well and are noticeable and it's enough to set it apart from the EX wheels, aside from the size.

Shouldn't a 17-inch rim take a 45-series tire? Won't the 40-series make your overall wheel size small? If I'm wrong, someone please elaborate...
