Black Rims on DINAN 50I M package

All

Just got my black TSW nurburgring rims put on my ride...this is my dedicated winter setup with 275/40/20's all square on 10 inch fronts and 10.5 inch rears. Unfortunately i do have a bit of rim overhang due to the roundedness of the snow tire compared to the stock summer run flats. I'm loving the black on black so much that i may want to sport these all year around. Ultimately i think i will probably sell my stock 333M rims and look for something else aftermarket in a 20 or 21inch staggered setup for my summer setup. Any comments or suggestions would be much appreciated also any other mods you guys recommend?

Current mods include:
Dinan ECU upgrade to 505HP
Dinan Sport free flow exhaust system with ceramic tips
Dinan Billet Pedals
Painted front reflectors
Black Kidney Grill
TSW Nurburgring rims powder-coated black

Agreed. That would look wicked. Wish my rotors looked like yours. Mine are all rusted out. I hate it.

Looks great, but can I ask where you purchased?
I'm looking into getting the same wheels for my truck but tire rack and discount tire don't sell them on their site. Thanks in advance

I will look into front tint ASAP and try to post a media clip of the exhaust as well. I got the rims from California Wheels in San Jose (ask for Macario). PM me if you want more detail on the rims/tires...i spent a ton of time looking into a suitable winter set and many thanks to everyone in the forum who helped me out as well. A bit excessive given i will only go to the snow 5 weekends this year, but i wasn't going to risk taking the 315 summer tires up there. Numerous people have gone with 19 or 18 inch setups, but i wanted to maintain an aggressive profile.

Good thought. Thanks for the exhaust clip when you get a chance. I love the sound of my stock 4.8 but I'm always wondering can I get a little more out of it...

I didn't know there were different types of roof rails? I'm pretty sure mine are black. Do you know the diff? Model year or package option?

Sweet ride.
Let me know if you plan on selling your 333m wheels.
Where did you get the exhaust from?...thats the best looking quad tip exhaust i've seen yet. all others seem to stick out far too much from the bumper. do you know if it will fit the 3.0si?

Looks awesome. So much better now that the wheels are powder coated black. So mean!

No spacers...10.5 inch rear rims and 10 inch front rims...25 offset in the rears so no spacer needed

Hey man,
How much did all the dinan work run you? If you could give a breakdown- much appreciated if you don't mind.

Last question is what are the specs on your rims as I wanna order a similar winter setup.

Thanks!
