No rubbing at all.. Wheels look so wide from behind.. And there is a big difference in comfort from the 24's and I am pleasantly surprised at how much Faster/Responsive it feels...
I didn't think the power/responsiveness would be soooo noticeable !!

Very happy camper...
Also, Vossen contacted shop and might do a photo shoot for the website...

Truly awesome!  BIG footprint. Powder coat is the perfect choice.  They eclipse the ones on your ROTM build.  Way to go! Also good to hear that the reduction in rolling diameter made a significant improvement in the performance.

If only it were red ;) 

I think it looks much better with these rims!  I've always felt that there is a certain sidewall to rim size that is visually appealing and this strikes a perfect balance!

Nice looking!  What color were wheels before powdercoating?  Painted or polished?

If I get a sport, I would get your color.  Wheels/Tires look like BMW X-5 from the rear!!!!  Love it!

The only color vossen makes these in is a painted silver flake. It's very nice, but I like the darker side..lol
Your the second person to make the X5 comment...
Here is a shot of the stock color.

Thx man.
I'm happy with them both in look and performance so far..
Plus, I'm not likely to run into anyone with a set of these on an explorer or this color..
On to the next project..

Ride looks amazing!!! I was very close to getting those same wheels and leaving them silver since i have a silver ex but the wife was not fond of the idea at the time.
Now i'm returning another set of wheels i bought and getting "Silver" lol, TSW Interlagos.
All of a sudden now she likes the idea of silver, haha.
