I love it! I remember how everyone was saying that a 9 +45 was so unsafe a few years ago. Now it seems as if you are the trail blazer for so called unsafe fitment. You truly are a pioneer. My hat is off to you sir.

OMG this guys got his d!ck in a lot of mouths on this thread. Mad props for that! LOL.

Obviously I like his car... it's an S. As far as pushing the limits of style and drivability in the realm of low offsets, I'm all for watching SD do his thing with one of my favorite wheels also.

I think what some are trying to say is the spokes play a huge roll in regards to the width of the lips.
