IMO the ST wheels are just too plain in stock form, but do look much better painted black, makes them stand out a bit more. The slightly larger tire is also a benefit.

Please give us more pictures of your car! It's the so good the color combo

Sorry for delayed post. Moving into new house...

Here are some pics taken a few weeks ago. I know the amber lights look bad but clear side markers are illegal in PA!

yep rear 305s. just finished putting on the four. nothing sticks out past fender, fronts room to spare rears basically flush, or almost. i wasn't sure they would fit/look right w spacers, glad they did though. ill try and get some pics.

The Sport Techno wheel has a very unique "flow forming" process used to create them. They're also lighter than the other 20" wheels. If I could post the video of how they're made I would, it's pretty cool.

I like them especially when they're painted to match or contrast the car.

you know this no doubt, but Sport Technos can't be had with 5mm spacers from the factory

thats most likely because the rears are 1/2 wider.
