Konig Troubles, those are a sweet wheel. If you get 18s, you do not need to lower the car, although if you did it would give the car a sporty look and better handling.

I finally installed my new 18" setup and was worried about having to lower the car. If you can live with about 1/2 finger rise you dont have to lower the car. I went with a 235-45r18 and it looks fine.

Its not 2 fingers. Its more like 3.5, I will have to check to make sure. I said it was 1/2 greater than stock 17" with stock tires

I have 18"x8.5" with 245/40ZR18. It looks great without it being lowered.

I like the Konig Trouble.
