Yah those super 6's didn't sell good for some reason, always finding deals on em. Good pick up, fairly unique as far as newer rims go.

thnx

the red stripes are actually pinstriping along the lip which can be removed, or changed to different colour depending on mood LOL

the original owner did it and it looks ok, however i'm gonna remove it and see if its better left in its original style or keep it with some pinstriping

they look super sexy, and they really r mint not a damn scratch along the rim or the lips!

the previous owner was super detail oriented so he babied these rims since new.....

i think its a pretty good buy for under 4 bills for 18" brand name (and they are only 20lbs each rim)

quick noob question to all qualified:

if these rims r 18"x7.5 wot is the recommended tire size for these?

I know that I don't wanna go lower than 35-series tires, cuz thats greater risk of thrashing the rims!!

i'm currently dropped 1.5" on Form & Function type1 coilovers....and don't want rubbing, i believe the offset is 43 for the rims (if that helps?)

-- 215 45 18
-- 225 45 18
-- 215 40 18
-- 225 40 18

any info is greatly appreciated!

215 40 18

For 7.5, the 225 is too wide
