I have pretty much decided on the wheels I want, now I need everyone's help on color.  While not installed yet, I do have a set of H&R sport springs in the garage on my upcoming to-do list, so keep in mind the car will be lowered.  I am going with the KMC 691 Spin wheels (link below) in a 20x9 +38mm all the way around with 275/40/20.  Has anyone with a similar setup run into any rubbing/clearance issues?  In searching the forum, it looks like several people have done it with success.

As for the wheels, my original thought was on the bronze wheels as they would pop with the tuxedo black metallic paint.  But now I am leaning more toward the gunmetal color.  I am not too keen on the black wheels as they are a satin black, and I'm not a fan of how that will look with the metallic car paint.  What are everyone else's opinions?  Any comments are welcome.  There is a wheel viewer on the KMC website too if if you need help visualizing.

Found this post.  Was interested in the outcome?  I'd like to run 275-40/20's also but I really want a 20x9 wheel to ensure a good contact patch.

Did you have any issues?  Also, I can't seem to find any details on the weight of the wheels.

Any info would be appreciated.

OP's SHO was rear ended Nov. 2016.

Doesn't appear he's been active since.

Just FYI.
