Post 18' Rim pics here

I'm stuck between 18' or 19'. I know the benefits and sacrifices of both already. Pretty much its looks vs. comfort. I already found the perfect 19' set up if I went that route. I just want to see everyones ride with 18' rims on a lowered 3G. And also post your full rim and tire dimensions please!!!

Honestly i would first look at the roads you drive on. 19s come with low profile tires so chances are if you do hit a pothole hard enough you can bend a lip... if the roads are something like what we have here in nyc i would go with 18s. Comfort wise between 18s and 19s i myself couldn't really tell a difference and it really depends on the tires itself.. Here is my car with 18s. front tires are 225/40/18 and rear are 245/40/18... and good luck with finding your wheels

Here's my setup...love the look and the ride isn't too harsh. RonJon Legends 18x8, +32 offset w/ 235/40/18 Bridgestone Potenza RE960A/S tires. Dropped on TEIN H Techs w/ Tokico HTS shocks (adjustable dampening rocks btw!) Hope this helps you.

I've never done this, so hopefully the pics come through. I was initially looking at 19's, but opted for 18's. Price wasn't an issue, but rather bent rims, comfort of ride, peace of mind, etc. After the drop and camber kit, the 18's look good and ride fantastic:

Specs: HD Smoke Machined Black 7.5 Width +42 offset with Nexen N3000 Summer Tire ZR245/40.
