The Wheels look awesome. Congrats! Your paint looks fantastic too! I've got black as well and I know just how much fun it is keeping clean

Hey Jaay,

I know tire rack recommends 225/35/19 for the front, but the
next time you need tires... depending on how ya drive..
I would use :

235/35/19 on the front (that's what I am using now) ...
10mm will square off those front tire shoulders a bit more... and with no rubbing, it also may help fill that front end a little more and that maybe why you felt you needed the spacers because your tire shoulder is not as squared off....

I am using hankooks as well and I really like the look of them, but
I think when I replace my rears (265/30/19's now)
I think I am going to go 10mm wider on the rear next time to a 275/30/19.
I would like my rear tires shoulder a bit more squared off then they are
now with the 265's and I think from what I can see and feel that there
should be just enough space to not rub on the inner control arm/support.
That's just me being picky though. They look really great as is... just a thought.
