Anyone own there yet and have pictures on a S?
I will take some in the next couple days of the K8R.
I like them from the side, but wish they were at least flush when looking from the front/rear. The inside of the wheel protrudes out maybe 5-8mm (probably to help with brake clearance).
And red anodized valve stems were put on the wheels.....I wish they used a nuetral color like black or silver.
Also can you post your alignment specs and rather or not the fenders are rolled/flared?

I got some pics, if anyone wants a specific picture of anything, let me know.
The wheels fit nicely up front. The rear could probably use a small spacer. I haven't rubbed anywhere for the last couple weeks. I bent the tabs in the front as a precaution, the body is otherwise stock at all 4 corners.
Alignment...the last I remember camber was 1.5 to 2 degrees at each wheel (don't know exact numbers).

I like the look. What paint did you use on the hub?

Any pics from the front of the car? The K8R look like a large part of them extends outward from the tire in the head on shots.
