Those are nice rims........they dont have any other sizes? Also have you thought about going with chrome? I think chrome would look good on your car.

I am not really into chrome wheels...I have seen a few my color with chrome, it just doesnt do it for me....
I have not really looked aroud yet, these are offered by maximum motorsports I was just lookin on thier site, I guess I'll have to look up the company that makes the wheels..

Its not your car, but the colors go well together... I've always liked the subtle look myself, i think it would look great with black wheels ...something with a big fat polished lip.

The wheels on e-bay you posted, 18x10 and 18x9 have a 3" lip... I think those would look pretty damn evil...lol It says they require *tuner* lug nuts WTF are those?

They're real skinny, some use special tools to remove/install.

Call Brian at Belle Tire 586-323-0100 and ask him what he can get ya.

The ones you picked are alright. Just get ahold of UR2SLW and have your rears made 2" wider at the same place he did. I think he said the only charged $175 a wheel to do that. Good luck.
