The car looks great as do the wheels, but I think you should have used 255x30 on the fronts & 295x25 for the rears on those rims to give you some rim edge protection.

It seems you have no side wall movement and the tyres look stretched!

I think the front offset makes things look more aggresssive.

Did they tell you what the front offset is?

I dunno about that dude, I have the same wheels from 360 and Im also running Nitto Invos and I have a 255 in the front and my wheel does not stretch or look like that AT ALL.

I think you need a wider front tire BIG TIME!

Ya, Brembos are always a nice upgrade.

however, when you have black centers, i think it is necessary to paint the inside of the rims, because that ugly silver looks horrible. I have the brushed aluminum centers and I hate the look of the inside of the rims, but if I had black. I WOULD 100% paint

Love it! Nice choice on wheels. The Vorsteiner front lip and rear diffuser would definitely go along with that theme of black on SSII. I would do them and leave the CF exposed, maybe paint part of the rear diffuser and leave the rest exposed CF.
