Let me know how it works out for you. I'm getting ready to order a set real soon to replace my 505a's. I have the Stoptech BBK already waiting for them. I want them in satin black and 19 x 345 NT05s at the rear.

What color did you go with, and what tires?

Post some pics when you get them. Congrats, they are great looking wheels

Yeah, I hear they will clear just about anything. They even clear the 15" Brembo rotors if you go 10.5" at the front. I just got the 14" Stoptechs so I should be fine.

Hard to go wrong with CCWs. The wheels look very sharp on your car.
