I hear those Z1 Star Specs are outstanding!

Is there a visual difference between the 17x9 vs. 17x8 (other than obvious width)?

I would think that 17x9 would have a bit more concave to the face of the wheel.

Hopefully Suby_dude will comment on this.

Your car looks awesome Adam! Love the red stoptechs behind the DPT's Be sure to post up the rest of your pictures once you finish the detail

Yes there is a visual difference between the 17x8 and 17x9 model. The wheel face is different and the 17x9 model does have concave where as the 17x8 is a flatter face.

Here is the 17x8 +48 Hyper Black


and the 17x9 +42 Hyper Black (ignore the cap, wrong color )

Thanks Dan! Ya, detail is finished, but I destroyed the front bumper on some ice the other day lol. Oh well, it needed replacing anyway The good part is, the wheels are pretty tough. I have already hit a couple decent size rocks, my snow bank encounter, and I DESTROYED a squirrel today. The last is just an honorable mention

Lets see some more DPT pics!
