Does anyone have these on their ride? If so can you give me your thoughts about ride and post pics?

Had JCW double spoke black wheels. Loved them but wanted white wheels so i sold them. If color were white, I would not have sold them.

Here's a look:

The more I see the black wheels the more I want them for my 06 MC....would be a nice touch for sure. Those look really nice on your CR for sure!

I love these wheels; I'm running 205/40/18 Michelin PS2s, non RF, and they ride better than the 16" RFs I had on last winter.

Hey Jay. I just love your rims buddy. But, lately I've been having reservations about their weight. I would also feel the need to put 215/35/18s on them and a bit nervous about that, too.

Honestly, If you are tracking the car, than I would worry about weight. The R105's are heavy,(23.3 lbs.) but not that heavy. I did 215/40/18 to fill the wheel well more.
