Nice, 215/40/18, with what offset? No rubbing problems?

I'm looking at tire calculator here I thought to run 18's, to keep the original diameter of our stock tires, and have our speedometers read properly we would have to run 205/35/18 (going 60mph you're actually going 59.9mph 0.1% slower). 215/35/18 (going 60mph you're actually going 60.6mph 1.0% slower) and 215/40/18 (going 60mph you're actually going 62.8mph 4.6% slower)

Or does it EVEN matter?

who cares........lol

i have 18 / 35 with a 48 offset and i rub sometimes, but its the rubber on the tire (curb protector) thats rubbing. 35 series aren't that bad on are cars, are suspension handles pretty well. My wifes car a civic with 35series sucks the big one.

Hey you get what you pay for

I hear you on that bud, but would you drop 2-3g's on rims? If there is a sick deal on some sure why not.

I'd definitly put down 2500 on rims but enough of my yammering, i'd go with the advan copys

Sorry to thread jack,anyway,back to you,hehe..

It's funny I actually photoshopped some rims like that onto my car a little while back too But I jacked mine off an Evo and painted them into PS.
