Default New wheels- would like opinions

Folks,

I finally got new wheels and I like them. Only thing that bugs ms is the poke in the front and rear. I thought I was getting wheels that were flush on the front and maybe a very slight poke in the rear. I was wrong...What are you thoughts and any advice......Thanks

perhaps could help answering the question if you provided the wheel size, back spacing, offset, and manufacturer

Ahhh, the famed Forgestar poke...it would bother me.

Here's my thread on it:

Wheel design looks great, but I would not care for the tire extending past the lip of the wheel well.
