Thanks, guys! They were already mounted when they arrived and I couldn't wait to put them on. I was able to get them on right away since I work at home. One of the perks. lol.They ride great! The tires are a little noisier than my other ones but it is most likely because they are new. We'll see how the noise is after a few hundred or a thousand miles.

Looking good! Although, didn't you used to have 18s a while back? Why not your new Mille's in 17 or 18"?

Why not your new Mille's in 17 or 18"?Yeah, I had 18"x7.5" RS Limited Senso wheels over a year ago. The ride was horrible especially with the Hotchkis springs. That is why I went back to almost stock ride height and my oem 16's. But I was wanting a true 5 spoke wheel. They didn't have these in 17's at the time, but if they did, they would have been $750. These were listed at $600 w/free shipping w/ Buy-it-now. I talked the ebay seller down to $500 shipped(for brand new wheels & tires). I couldn't pass it up.
