Default New Wheels for my Turbo.

Had some new wheels installed earlier today. Car sits a little higher than I'd like to I'll be going for lowering links as soon as time permits. In the meantime check it out. Some Vossen HF1's. 22x11 in the rear and 22x9.5 in the front wrapped in continental summers.

Thank you. It's a wrap. The original color of the car is white.

I actually agree with you. There is something off about the entire set up that I can't pin point I've mentioned it to my installer several times. The back doesn't look right to me.

The car is in sport plus. The height looks better in sport. But overall there's something off I jar don't know what.

After some time with the car and actually driving behind the car while someone else drove. I love the look. It took some getting used to. Here are a few more photos on level ground.

I think what people are seeing is the delta in the sidewall pinch. The rears are slightly wider for the rim width so the sidewall is much straighter and the front are a bit more rolled since they are not as wide on the rim. Were the fronts really 235 or actually 285? Just wondering if that was a typo. What were the widths and offsets for the wheels?
