Please post a side shot of the wheels. Are they concave or convex?

Two seconds on Google Images.

Looks like the spokes are slightly convex and the center is slightly concave.

My new shoes! Wrapped with Falken ZE912 225/40/18. Still on stock suspension but I have my stock wheels in the trunk so it looks lowered a bit lol. Looking to drop it with Eibachs or RCE yellows soon. Sorry for the bad quality picture - taken on my iPhone and it was really sunny out.

Also, I noticed this when I got home but the guys who mounted the tires on the wheels did some pretty bad damage...the shop I bought them from has agreed to have it refinished next week

Tight looking! After you dropped the 1", did you notice any harsh ridding and extra bumpy on the hwy? How about the cornering/drifting characteristics compare to stock? Thanks!

Looks good thanks for sharing! I have set of gun metals on order. 8.5 front 9.5 rear

Did you consider other tires before the Falkens? I'm still undecided. And what lugs do you have on there?

Thanks! They just refinished my wheel yesterday so hopefully I'll get some more decent pics this weekend.

I'm not going to be tracking or anything so I just went with the best bang for the buck. I have Rays in bronze on there. I was originally planning to use a set of Muteki SR35 in black but my shop told me the day I was installing my wheels that they didn't have it in stock. I'm still considering switching to a set of black lugs though.

Merged a topic by @canuckbrz - same wheels w/ same specs

Thanks!

Yep I got them! Theyre actually 18x8 18x9.No problems with clearance at all. I'm on RSR springs lowered by 30mm. You'll be fine with stock suspension. Ill post pics when I get a chance.
