Well we got the wheels and tires! I love the aggressiveness of the wheels and tires, but does need to be lowered for sure.









Wheel specs:
Work CR KAI Ultimates - F-Zero Blue
18x9.5 +38 Rear
18x8.5 +47 Front
5x100 of course

Tires:
Bridgestone Potenza RE-11
245/40/18 Rear
235/40/18 Front


Thanks!
Rick

I photoshop dropped it for you, due to boredom haha



the rear wheels poke quite a bit, do you think you'll have rubbing issues or do you plan to add camber?
