Those wheels are teh sex. I think these will definitely be the wheels I get whenever I've got that much money to spend on them. The black looks great too (color I'm getting).

18x8.5 with 45 offset and they look great! Nice and concave without having to worry about any mods. But I do need to get the TiC SST coilover set up on....when I have the money.

No...they're on back order or something. It's weird, but I don't have them.

Yes they do....but where I bought the wheels, they're waiting on them to come in. They're not exactly sure when, either.

as I type this the wheels are not mounted on the car yet as I had to wait for tires since I didn't time it right...

I just got the camber bolts in so I shouldn't have any rubbing issues as I went conservative on the tire size 235/40/18. In order to run this(after consulting with T3h_Clap) I have to run -2.5 of camber all around and rear fenders had to be rolled... keep in mind I am on RCE yellows so the car is dropped 24mm front and 20 in the rear and that already gave me a bit of negative camber. I went with a wider and lower offset this time as I had a set of Advan RSs +50 before but I didn't really like the higher offset look. I rather do some additional mods in order to run a more aggressive and better looking offset. My car is not a DD so I was not concerned with tire wear. I really like the fact that this wheel unlike the older RS is offered in a +35 as you get the right amound of poke as a +25 will probably look a bit extreme unless you run a widebody kit. I am sure though someone will run the +25 eventually on our cars. I will post pics once they are mounted later this week and thanks again for the complements... I am very happy with color offset and size of the wheel. They really look awesome in person

I think I should change the Cusco camber plates, they raise the front a bit...what do you guys think?

Here's some other pics:
