I prefer the 2nd Gen Type S rims over those. Nice car, however.

I don't know why, but they look smaller on 2nd Gens than the 3rd Gens. If they were 19's, they'd be perfect...with plus 5mm on offset too.

The rim/tire seems to stick out real close to the fender. I wonder if it'll rub real bad when the car is dropped.

Get the HR OE drop at least. That front fender gap is crazy large!! I've been there! I'm dropped on 19's with 45 offset. Cut the tabs and you may not rub since those wheels should be 18x8 or 17x8 with 45 offset. I don't rub anymore after doing that. Get a tire with rounded shoulder like the Falken Azenis, that helps with minimizing rubbing.

So far I love these wheels. Car feels like it's got a wider grip. (It does). Highly recommended.

Hey good to see you're still around as well. Gotta pimp this Spring! When's the next meet? Thanks for the kudos. I am thrilled with the price I paid AND the look. It was a slam-dunk.

Whats wrong with it? It keeps the server load smaller and makes the forum faster. There are PLENTY of free upload sites to use to host your images

I'm on 215's now. Can't go much tighter of a fit on the rim. I need to replace with 235's but need to comparison-shop big-time. Suggestions are welcome.

Wheels don't look too bad for stock. I know if you will drop them it will RUB like a mad DOG. But I wouldn't worry about it with 4'' inches gap.
