I also want the jdm engine covers (silver), and those cost about $200

Yes, I know 45 is closer to stock TIRE width, but the OVERALL width is what I was referring to (rim + tire).

I also want the jdm engine covers (silver), and those cost about $200 the rmm scoop is nice and subtle compared to vis - good choice. not sure about the jdm covers though, you should just save up for the IPT pieces bro. it'll flow with your Carbon Fiber theme much better.
