Here's some shots of my ZHP coupe.

Wheels: 18x9.5 et33 VB3 SQUARE
Tires: 255 BFG G-Force sports

Took a little trimming to get this aggressive of a set-up to work, but it was worth it in the end!

I have a few more pictures for anybody interested in seeing this fitment.

The last two pictures are before I lowered it a little more and installed my camber plates (which were needed)

I'm in agreement with the others. This is the one. Classy. Clean. Perfect fit.

I had to look up what the ACS Type III's look like, and I think I'm with jdny516... I think I like those CSL's better. I know ACS has a fine pedigree, and they're nice looking wheels, but man, those CSLs are just so perfect on E46s.
