Show off your 18s!

[defchino]

Come spring I am planning on getting new rims and tires and I am thinking of going with 18s. So if you got 'em, post here - any rubbing probs? Is the ride too stiff?

Show me pics - Convince me!

Post away!

what kind of offset and drop do you all have? if you only have a 42mm offset did oyu have to roll the fenders?

 

[Protege2K]

For me it was easy since the sedan has more room. I got 18x7.5 and an offset of 45. Fits fine, probably could have run less offset.

 

[Protege5Gurly]

Not sure on offset --- Eibach dropped --- rubbed on bumps until I rolled the fender lips in the rear.
