Desmond Marquis Promadas With a Twist?
Hey whats up guys I just got my wheels refinished and powder coated (after lagging forever) this past week and found some time to mount and install my coilovers at the same time.
Sizes are:
17x7 +35 Front
17x9 +45 Rear
So far no rubbing issues but I still need to lower it some more after I roll my fenders. I may also run 215/45's in the front instead of 215/40's they look a little to small but we'll see after I roll the fenders.
I was a little iffy on the color but after mounting them I think they look GREAT, I'm super happy how they came out
EDIT: Don't mind the chromy lugs, those are just temporary. Same for the center caps, I still have to figure out how I'm going to paint them
Big Thanks to AP2 for mounting the tires

Color is great but the front tires are definitely too small. With that much dark on the car, you've got to get them up to proper size or it'll stand out.

Those wheels are 
Do you know how I could source four 17x9 +45???
I want to go non-staggered but didn't know where I could find them. I know these are discontinued but I keep seeing people buying these. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hmm, I know ICB also sells them but in non staggered sizes.
TJ (Silentdancer has 3 for sale) and OBSeRiouso is selling a pair (fronts) you could maybe run 17x8 on all fours, but you would have to have the wheels powdercoated because TJ's are peal white and OBSeRiouso are Satin Silver. Goodluck man
