(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Yeah, I put the stockers 215 40's on the new rims and stretched them a bit. I think I need some 225 40's and coilovers to make it look right.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Gunmetal on the black is a pretty sick combo. I've just got the stock rims right now, but come spring time I'm thinking that may be the way to go. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score I love the look but have one quick question for everyone. If I go with the 18x8.5 rims, stock tire size won't work will it? It already begins looking stretched at 8 inches. Nice wheels!

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score I have since purchased some 225/40's and like them better. I would love to go 235/40's but I'm afraid they'll rub. I lowered on the Eibach Pro Kit about .8"R and .7" F.

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Thanks. If you have the money, go for the OZ ultraleggeras. They're great wheels.
