I really like the wheel and tire combo thinking of doing the same size tire do you notice any difference in acceleration or braking because of the bigger diameter? Thanks looks awesome!

Yes, but only when I put my stock wheels/tires back on. Car feels sprightlier, and the lateral grip is far less.

Yes, stock suspension.

@Cjymiller Looks absolutely beautiful! Perfect ride height, symmetrical arch gap all around the wheel- looks like it came that way from the factory.

Big thumbs up, dude

Nice looking car! I love these wheels - definitely going with this design but a more concave face and in gold. That might bump me out if the offset needs to be reduced. Then I gotta pick a summer tire I like and design to go square design or staggered. Then suspension and possibly roll the fenders if I have to. When the mod bug hits that is. I got some other highly modded cars already, so it's kinda nice to have one stock.

Did you end up selling your stockers to recoup some $$?

Thanks man. I still have the stockers for when I feel like practicing my car control... If you know what I mean.

You are just every where aren't you?

You will need m12x1.25 lugs.

Please just search around, your question has nothing do with the WHEELS that this thread is focusing on.

Thinking of getting some rota grid 18x9.5 with 38 offset. I have the eibach prokit. Will it fit? I like the concave look of this setup.
