New Wheels Quandary
OP - personally I think your car looks fine the way it sits in the photos. I never would have suspected there was an issue unless you pointed it out. Even then I still don't think you need to change anything. But hey, it's not my car.

Btw, have you checked out the other thread yet on aftermarket wheels? I just noticed that there are at least 4 different replies with the same wheels so may be you can take some reference from there?

Ok, so after some time I decided to go back to 295 per a conversation with Avant Garde. The 305 Michelin PS2 is just so large vs. other manufacturers. It was unreal as we compared rubber from various makes. I did stick with Michelin PS2. That said, the Pirelli 305 sat at least .5 inches shorter vs. the Michelin (at a minimum) when compared on their sides.
I realize the 10mm seems infinitesimal but it made a very noticeable difference in the protrusion in the rear including the wheel guard rubber at the aggressive Ruger offset. I'm also pleased as the 305 was throwing considerable dirt on the sides of the bumper immediately following the well and I was concerned that the paint might get marred.

The Ruger Splits flow great with the look of the car

Many thanks. I absolutely love the splits. They have completely transformed the car.
