        Makes sense. What about the rears though?

          The 255/35/18's came on the rears when I bought the wheels. ย They still have a good amount of tread so I wanted to keep them.

          Do you think I will be able to fit them with a good roll at this height? ย They're 18x9 ET38.

            Those should be fine. You run into issues once you get some 10's in low offsets=) lol 17x10et8 with a 215/40 to be precise

                  What kind of suspension you running?

                  How much money do you have in this car now?

                    Raceland Ultimos.

                    I have about $450 into the whole car on top of the purchase price.

                    Finally rolled the fenders and got the new side trim on. Did some paint correction and really cleaned her up all around. Very happy with it.

                        Where did you get the trim cheap? I got mine on ECS Tuning for a great price. Car looks good for being on 18's though:)

                          Thanks guys. Got the side trim for $40 from the guy I bought the rims from. Saw them in his shop and asked him how much he wanted.
