Monster truck madness going on, i have some lowering springs waiting for installation.

Here are some pics of my wheels. 18x8.5 45mm offset. I got some Potenza S04 (heavy) tires in 245/35-18

I didn't notice that they are 5 lbs heavier than other tires in its class, oh well. It is just a street car. Total weight of old wheels were around 41.2lbs on my decent bathroom scale. These weighed in at around 47.5 lbs.

Looks great! Once you lower down on them, it will look amazing. I really like these wheels.

I tried to get a bunch of different angles here with different light. Just average joe pictures. 225/40/18 tires on 18x8 Gunmetal. Something i will say is that i am surprised at how concave they look. It's more than i thought it was going to be when the dealer said they looked flat. I like it.

I just installed my hotchkis lowering springs. 1 inch drop. Car seems to ride better over small bumps? Haven't driven it hard yet so can't comment on performance otherwise. Also used crash bolts in the front to get more camber. Had to file down my left spring perch, almost touched the tire, maybe had 1/16". Little too close for comfort so I gave it some more room. Right side had enough clearance. Not sure why they were so different?
