    Guys,

    I am all ready to order some rims and tires. I would like to see some pictures of your cars for those of you who have 18x9 in the front and 18 x 10 in the rear. Also if you have lowered it tell me if you have had any problems with rubbing or whatever. What size tires are you using? As much info as possible so that I know what the heck I am doing when I order them. Also where did you get them and what kind of experience did you have with the seller. Where would you recommend I buy them?

    Very nice. Do you know what the offset on the rear tires are? What size tires are those?

    Thanks :D

    I'd have to go back and check the offset but the front tires are 275/40/17 and the rears are 315/35/17. No fitment issues what-so-ever.

    The main reason I went with 17's and not 18's is the price of tires. The Sumitomo HTR-Z are priced VERY well on Tire Rack, we shall see how long they last. Dry traction is good, wet is decent. If you are at all on a budget, 17's are the way to go. Once lowered, the right set of 17's look as good as any 18 IMO
