Rims look good. They accent the color of you car perfectly.

Ok,
To answer the questions: The wheels are 18x7.5 5Zigen Copse witha +35 offset with Falken Azenis 245/40/18 tires. My suspension set up is stock struts with Ground Control coilovers. Before I put them on I had the coilovers lowered about 3.5 inches. When jacking it down all tires were hitting. I ended up rasing it about 1.5-2 inches. Driving around on these bouncy shocks and turning hard I still scrub a little so I'm going to have to raise it about another 1/2 inch. Hopefully when I replace my struts I can lower it again as it seems to high for me now that I'm used to being lowered 3.5" on 14" wheels. Because of that scrubbing issue I recomend getting a +38 offset compared to a +35 that I have. The recomendations for our car is +35 to +42. Cormudgen |

hey,
looks great.. i managed a tire store 5 years and i would say a better fit would have been 245/35r18 .. it has a shorter sidewall and this would be closer to oem diameter.. but if you are happy that is all that matters ... besides 245/35 cost more and is harder find than 245/40.. d- 95 ST205 WRC .. |

The rims look incredible on the car! It's a very good rim for your car, and it changed the way it looks so much.

EXCELLENT
You got them unbelievably chiep. I hope i lived in the states when this kind of miracles can happen. I have a silver GT4 1998 and those tyres would be perfect on my car as weel. Unfortunately they cost 3-4 times as much in my country so i settled with painting my 17"s dove grey like my leather interior |

Nice wheels bro. Your car looks great with them on, even without a body kit. It looks very clean and simple, which is what I'm really into. Good job buddy.
