Are my eyes deceiving me in regard to wheel clearance?

The front tires look like they'd contact the wheel well if you ran over an ant!

EDIT: Derp, never mind.

Thanks! Yes the mechanism with stop at any point when u stop lifting the switch. I think it's a safety feature so no fingers get crushed!

The HRE wheel is just sitting in front of the stock one. I haven't gotten the courage yet to switch it up on my own, maybe next weekend

Congrats - I've got a Slate Gray one in my garage now, still not driven it yet as my wife picked it up and it's been snowy since. Need to get it to the shop to get my winter rubber on it, but snow came today.

Very similar spec to yours! Look forward to getting the car out soon.

wow, this one is a keeper. Please sell it to me when you are done with it. btw, I like the OEM wheels with it better.

Nice! Let me know how she does in the snow, I'm not that adventurous at this point as I have an SUV for winter duties.

Hopefully so! I have a problem with car ADD, if this doesn't hold my attention there's no hope! =)

I was able to pick the HREs up for a great deal, it'll be a nice contrast to the OEM black mesh when I get bored of them.

Best,
Tom

Fantastic color! Always nice to see something different.
Would be interesting to compare to Geyser Grey side by side.
