Mounted the Falkens on My Millenia Wheels (pic)

Finally got my hands on some of those Falkens. Had them mounted tonight at NTB and they did a great job - friendly and they were very careful with everything.

I know I'm a little late to the party with this pic, but I wanted to show them off a bit.

(pic tomorrow with them on the car if anybody cares...)

Those are very very nice. Do you know if they will clear the spoon calipers?

yup, no problem. Just put them on the car and I'm heading out for a drive.
They are for autox only but I want to break them in a bit...

They are 15" x 6" with a 50mm offset. Same exact dimensions as the stock ITR wheels, but they are about 4 lbs. lighter.

Not ideal, no - but it still works well.

For thoise wondering how I painted them: Go to an autoshop and pick up some flat black primer, flat black paint, and some clear coat (optional - I was going to leave them flat black but was afraid of chipping)

Clean the wheels very well and wet sand.
4 coats black primer.
4 coats black paint.
2 coats clear coat.

You may want to wet sand in between some of the primer coats...
