    I should have clarified. Yes, photoshop. It’s why I said they “would be amazing”.

    nope, they don't.. The o.e.m.'s desperately did, but not these. I tried, up to 15mm and did not like them at all. The offset of the new wheels along with the additional width make up the additional width needed, anymore looks obnoxious and sticks out way too much.

    You are correct. I photoshopped them on my car with the renderings Dan sent me, but they are in production now. Will post some photos when I have them mounted on the car.

    After waiting forever for my wheels to arrive from BBS (10 months) they are finally with me. Now I need to find tyres! Any recommendations on size - wheels are 8x18 and 10.5 x18, or tyres that suit the 355 would be appreciated.

    They look great.

    Mine were a special order, no premium in price, just took ages! Just through a UK dealer. Made in Japan.

    What tyre size are you running? Guessing the wheel size is the same - 8x18 and 10.5x18?

    They look like Import wheels wheels. I like Advans Wolf's and Rays and what not and they look great on Evos and sti's but don't seem to look quite right on 355s.

    Apologies, I can’t recall which thread it was in, there was a devout over optional oem rins in the 355, but thought people would be interested in it looks like Superformance have the option 18” spoke rims in stock. I doubt for long though! (No connection at all)

    Well, my day is here! I've finally received my satin black HRE 305M in 18x8/18x10 wearing PS4S rubber. I will be running factory center caps and also just received my adapters to do so (one of the perks of HREs).

    I'll be putting them on the car in the coming weeks along with some Nitron coilovers once I get the car back from a (very long) motor rebuild.

    Nice wheels, Brandon! They look like "modern" Challenge wheels. You also made the right choice of tires. I have Pilot Sport 4Ss on a set of Challenge wheels which I mount when temperatures are too cold for slicks or when it's raining...

    I don't mind the flat face, but there is some concavity to them. These cars are 18/19 as well. I haven't seen anyone run 18s front and rear. Excited to see them mounted!

    Wait not sure I follow. 355 are 18s front and rear. Hmm19 & 18 may look nice actually. Great color on the wheels also.

    the two examples you sent were both 18 front and 19 rear. I will be keeping OE sizing front and rear.

    Thanks on the color! It presents very nicely in person.
