Winter Wheels

I've garnered quite a bit of info on this blog about winter wheels so I wanted to share my experience . Hopefully it will help someone here. My pics are not that great so pardon the blurriness.
Okay so my summer wheels are front 285/35/21, rear 325/35/21.
I have brembos on so had some difficulty finding 20's. Found some X6M 20's from WheelTech. Dude Ray was very helpful. Paid $2200 for the wheels and tires which included TPMs. Square tires Bridgestone Blizzaks DM-V1 275/40/20. Wheels are staggered front 20x10, rear 20x11.
Looks okay but I'm thinking of spacers for a more aggressive look.
I appreciate your comments/critique.

Nice looking set up - do you have any pictures from the rear of that 275 tire stretched on the 11 inch rim? Trying to get an idea of how that looks.

Are you posting these from a device in Australia? That would explain it!

edit: my opinion only, but the rear stretch on those winters does not look good.
