Gotta hand it to ya Smitty, those are the NICEST wheels I've seen yet for our whips. Doesn't look like there's much else you can do to your car now!

Just one question tho,
Why go with a 8" wide wheel and put on a 225 section tire? I got 225s on my 18"x7.5" SSRs. Aren't you just adding extra wight with the extra half inch width? I'm thinking of buying superleggras and I want to get it in 18x8, but not if it wont fit the 235s without rubbing.

EDIT: just to avoid confusion, when i said "not really saving weight," i meant that for the GT3's, NOT the GT1's...sorry bout that

Smitty, Def love those wheels. Those are HOT!! I think those are the best wheels and tires on here. Where did you get them and how much did they cost. Cant wait to hear back from you.
