Im hoping to get new 18s from a friend in about a week or two, he currently has 225/35ZR18 but i want to replace the tires soon, he only has 70% on the front two and like 30% on the back.

I want the no-rubber look without breaking 100ea for the tires. in your opinion what is the best tire size?

and is a 38+ offset good?

thanks

We dont have cops that give you a hard time here, just because you have a fart can or such. There's not really a import scene here that gets much attention alone because, EVERY car is an import laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif We dont have strict guidelines about DOT (in our country CE) certified stuff. As long as is a vehicle that can be driven safe its okay. Only thing they can sometimes whine about (but thats mostly in the past) is window tint, but thats now legally set on 25% tint (as in 75 % visibility)

But this cop is a friend of a friend of a friend of mine smile.gif
