Default Picked up a new set of wheels

Picked up a set of new wheels for an insane price. $340 shipped to my door! Not the greatest of brands, but for 300 bucks....who cares!



18x8.5 +30 Front

18x10 +25 Rear



STR 514 in gunmetal finish



Quick horrible photoshop of how they will look....

For tires, I'm probably going to go with 245/40 on the front and either 255/40 or 265/35 in the rears. I have a small drop on Tein springs, so I dont have much to worry about in regards to the tires rubbing.

BTW....out of curiosity, if I wanted to run the factory 225/45 and 245/45 tires on these wheels, how bad would it look in terms of stretch? I hate the stretched look, but if I can get away with it not looking too bad, then I might do it until I decide what tires I want to exactly.

That will be very stretched with the stock tires. Heck, even a 265 is stretched on a 10. A 10 should have between a 275 and 295 on it.

Found a good price on 245/40's for the front and 275/40's for the rear so I went with them!

To me, that's a ridiculous amount of stretch, but I'm a go'er, not a show'er.
