What size are those tires? Looks good. I think you need to buy my big brakes to fill in the wheel now.

I got them from discount tire direct. I had to wait two months. They drilled them custom to fit my car.

i had those exact wheels on order. until a phone call from the supplier said that Konig wasn't making the hot swap in the 5x110 bolt pattern til late summer. I then switched to my MKW's that i have now, and i'm kinda glad i didn't get the hot swaps now. Reason being as mentioned before, a nice big brake kit is necessary to fill in some of the empty gap of the wheel.

Dude... those rims look sick I don't know about the Red Inserts. I've seen what they look like and it might be too much. It really makes the rims darker. I like the shine of the Chrome.
