Motegi MR116's 18x9 et35

[Jerzees_illest]

I got these wheels for next to nothing since 1 of our wheel distributors hooked me up with a super low price, it was hard to refuse. The tires are a little stretched but its not as bad as I thought. I used the stock 215/45's since they still have decent tread. I have to do a little fender roll in the back or I'll have to stiffen up my shocks. It's also not herrafrush or anything like that, I might have to lower the front a little more too.

I'll let you decide, here are some crappy iPhone pics.

Hell they probably rub on those 215's. That's exactly why I got the wheels I have now; found 'em on Craigslist for something like $400 with good rubber. My offset is 38; I don't even know the width but 235's look pretty straight, 225 looks slightly stretched. They rub like a bitch even with rolled fenders with anything wider than 225.

LOL .. I just need to roll it a little. I didn't wanna get new tires because I wasn't really in love with the wheels and I wasn't sure how it would look on my car. My 1st choice was the XXR 527's but none of my distributors had them in stock with the 35 offset. My coworker took a photo of the rear tire and I'm just waiting for him to send it to me and I'll post it on here.

Here's the rear pic of the "small stretch" of the tires.

Seriously tho, it's not that bad in person.

I see what you did there.

[manharthemaster]

Rims look sick. Get ready for some serious roll and pull when you get tires though.
