nice wheel choice buddy.
any reason why you chose these in particular?
oh and i know it's been said like 50 times but...just lower it a little bit more, like 1/2" all the way around. you won't rub, your tires will be fine, and it'll look A LOT better. don't slam, just lower a tad more.

Aaron, thank you I picked them because they looked so good on your car
J, that's a little extreme!
And Tyler, I just might, still seeing how I like it.

If you wanna see 19's, go to SharksBreath's thread. He's 19x9 front and 19x9.5 rear. Can't remember his offset. Go to page 14 and he lists the specs but I think he added some small spacers recently.
I love my 18's, they're light as hell, I still have plenty sidewall and width on the tires and I think they look amazing. It's entirely up to you, but running 19 and a drop requires more aggressive specs.

Rim and tire was 35.6 pounds according to the scaled. I'd estimate that though, that was a bathroom scale. I'll have to weigh it on my dad's real scale next time I pull the rims off.

^^^ that scale seems messed up....
The tire is listed at 24lbs at tirerack...which means the rims weighs in at less than 12lbs ?
Size: 235/40ZR18
Load Range: 95Y XL
UTQG: 280 AA A
Max Load: 1521 lbs
Max Inflation: 50psi
Tread Depth: 10/32"
Tire Weight: 24lbs
cant wait for you to weigh em at a decent scale....
PS: I hate my bathroom scale....seriously....

Idk, that's why I said it was a bathroom scale!
My dad has one that hangs and you put what you want to weigh on the hook so I'll put a strap on the rim and weigh it that way. I'll let ya'll know but according to Forgestar...
http://www.forgestar.com/blog/?p=374
18×8.5 +48 17.6 lbs
18×9.5 +48 19.4 lbs
18×10 +42 19.2 lbs
18×12 +68 20.0 lbs
So mine approx. weighs 19 lbs or under.

Lowest I'd go is putting the tires to the fenders. Which I'm like an inch from where I am now.

Exactly. I'm like at 1.5" drop now. I want to stay away from camber kits too. Lower = more problems. Like axles for example. I DO NOT want to replace those.
