currently stock height amd oem wheels but plan on getting springs soon,

TSW 18x8 +40 offset with 225/40r/18 for a 03 TL-S? not sure the name of these rims, will these be sticking out or stick with the stock wheels?


thanks

 

i have a set of tsw 18x8, different style but they fit perfectly fine,i also have a slight drop

 

Will be fine. They'll be flush with the body which stock wheels are not. BTW what color is your car?

 

oh alright awesome thanks guys, was reading about 45 offset being the max

its SSM btw.

thinking of cleaning these up, repaint them, but don't know to keep the current color or go for another color

 

I was hoping you were going to say silver. That's a perfect color wheel to go with that car. Before painting them see if a polish then wax brings back the deep color and shine. Having tinted windows on a silver car really brings out gm wheels. I can't wait to see them on the car.

 

Those will be nice and flush and the design is solid. I would definitely get new tires of course. Also IMHO they'd be best all gunmetal, but only because I hate chrome lips with dark spokes (except for 02Type-s' wheels cause they just work).

 

Thank you, sir

I like the design on those. May be worth polishing up and seeing how you like them as is. However, being 18s the contrasting lip will make them appear a bit smaller.

 

the car already came with the windows tinted

thanks for the suggestions guys, im going to polish and clean these up, time to save up for some new tires then.

wondering if 225/45r/18 or 50r still fit fine? not used to having 40r on tires

 

50 is too large of a profile and will throw your speedo off. Stick with the 40 or 45

 

thanks sir, was thinking 225/45r/18 all around, now just need to find a good deal on springs
