Opinions of these wheels

Hello all,

I just bought/painted and detailed these wheels and wanted some opinions on them. I think they look good. You can tell a bid difference in weight at the wheels, but it's a street car so no biggy.
They are 17x7 and 17x8.5, running Hankook EVO12, 215/45R17 and 255/40R17,
21mm spacers in front and 1.5" in the rear. They fit the wheel wells great so thanks to all the advice from the forum.

Looks nice... Wait, maybe my opinion is bias as well.
I am running cup twist.

They may not be the best looking wheel ever, but I really like what you did with them. The good photo helps to.

Painting that red line around them was a pain in the rear!!!
