PM me if you would like me order them.
I can custom order any offset? and you'll make sure it clears brembos?

if that isn't true, what offsets are available that clear brembos.

No not all offsets will fit to clear the brembos it depends on if we are talking 17's or 18's a 17x8 is +53 and a 18x8 is +45

When you go wider the offset will change. Are you looking for fitment on those 17x9's

Good deal, so then you should have the anthracites soon. For some reason I didn't think they'd be on this shipment...but that is awesome that they are.

yes, I need to know what 17x9s clear brembos.

I'm not worried about tire fitment/rubbing I have that handled. I just need to know what offsets you offer that will clear the brembos in a 17x9 5x114.3

The finish on these wheels are outstanding! Here are a few pictures. This HPS color looks like fluid Mercury. If you have ever seen the BBS "Black Diamond" or Prodrives "Bright Flitter", its virtually identical. I am going to get a set of these mounted up for a photo shoot this next week.

The gold finish is as expected. Bright gold and its amazing! These wheels are flying out the door so dont hesistate to reserve a set.

Is that "hps" color the anthracite?

Did you get 17x8 5x114.3 in anthracite? If you have them I want them.

And that gold looks awesome. One of the richest golds I've seen. Very nice.

EDIT: nevermind...I'm dumb. HPS is High Power Silver.

I do have a few sets in this HPS. Anthracite is almost black. The HPS color is probably what you are looking for.
