Wow those look pretty good. Have you had any rubbing? Are those XXRs just bolt on or do they need special rings or bolts or anything? The shade of the faces almost look like the color of your car, goes really nicely together.

Nothing else needed. Bolted right up. The color is Chromium black. The other color i was thinking about getting would have been Platinum.

No rubbing at all.

Just saw this post so I hope this question is not too late. By the way those wheels are really nice. Did you have to install any centering rings and do you get any vibrations in your steering between 40 and 60 MPH running these wheels ? Thanks
