Not a fan of the style but the company looks to have done a great job refinishing the wheels.

They look great! You should consider some spacers though, to get them a bit further out. Otherwise nothing bad to say at all As for tire size, why didn't you go for 255/40R17 in the back as well as going up to 235/45R17 in the front like the OEM 99 spec/Spirit R did?

Default Tire Size

I didn't really think about the Spirit R tire size. When I need new tires I will look at those sizes. Thanks
