pic request... 18s with aggresive setup
I see that almost everyone who get aftermarket goes with 19s but I'm still thinking 18s because of road conditions, overall diameter, weight, and ride comfort.
That said, can people post pictures of aftermarket 18s with aggressive setups ... i.e. 8.5 & 9.5 with maybe 235/40 and 265/35 or larger. I can't find anyone here who has 18s! Thanks. |

Well I just ordered a set just like you describe but my widths are going to be 235F/255R to reduce the understeer a bit. If it doesn't go well I'll use 265 rears.

I like the CSL and various BBS looks as well but EVERYBODY gets those and these wheels are just TOO cheap to pass up, and they meet my ~20lb requirement. I am anxious to see how they look on stock ride height, but if I don't like it, I'll have to get coil overs and drop it. My driving skills aren't nearly where I want them to be to start upgrading suspension but as my daily driver I want the car to look teh sex.
