Those look pretty cool, what brand?

Also I have 17s with a 40 profile on the tire, and it looks great, I also have it lowered though. 18's are harder to fit, esp with lowering springs, heavier, slower, harsher ride when you go even more lower profile on the tires.

I don't know 18's look cool, but 17's are the shit I think...

Those will look sick on black. Go with 17s. Nothing is more heart breaking than the let down that comes with a heavy set of 18s. Guy goes out for a drive, and discovers that his car's acceleration and braking have gotten worse.

But they look awesome :D

I'd like it in Bronze finish...But why so many holes? Is it like a universal fitment :confused

it kills me that people think that 18's are "slower" it has to do more with weight then diameter. I would put money on that my 18's are lighter then 99% of the members wheels with 17's on this board.
