New wheels came in today!
Well, the fronts did anyway... I'm hoping the rears show up tomorrow so I can get tires put on this weekend.
They're Stern ST-2s in silver with a polished lip. 18x8.5 front, 19x9.5 rear.

Oh, and I'll take some proper photos once the wheels are installed.

Oh, and since you'll have the originals off, you can finally clean them.

Hey Alex, When you get everything done, we'll all have to get together and take a look. How about another run at Stillwater? Maybe in August sometime. Rudy?? Mark?

UPDATE: Rear wheels arrived today and I'm having tires mounted tomorrow morning. I'll hold off on mounting the new wheels until my new brake pads show up. Should be any day now...
I'm also planning on painting the calipers but I haven't decided on a color yet. I'm leaning towards yellow or maybe red.
Still waiting to mount these wheels. I ordered spacers yesterday. Once those arrive, I'll have to figure out how much longer lug bolts I'll need. I got an older set of Hankook Ventus S1 Evo tires mounted on Saturday only to find out that there was a nail in one of the rear tires. Patched it easily enough though.
Rotex Gold brake pads arrived last night so if I can get my spacers by Friday, I'll hopefully be able to mount the wheels this weekend!

I hope you have better luck with this wheel than I did! Could not make them work! Spokes hit caliper! Spacer required is to thick!!! Don't mount your tires till the wheel fits!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!
