hey bro, i think those wheelz look good. which car u gonna put em on? i saw ur gallery and all the cars look good. im thinkin the 18's should be perfect, but u unfortunately gotta find out the offset to make sure that they will fit, jus post what the offset number is and im sure people will tell u if they fit or not. im pretty sure if its gonna go on a TL then the offset has to be +45 or larger. hope this helps

for 18's you want at least a 45+ offset.

they will not look like baby wheels, but i would highly reccomend dropping the car to eliminate the wheel gap.

if you do go with 19's, i believe you need at least 47 or 48+ offset. somebody correct me.

Redlinen:

If you get 18x7.5 rims, offset is +45 or higher. Recommended tire size is 225/40/18

If you get 18x8 rims, offset is +50 or higher. Recommended tire size is 225/40/18

If your wheel vendor can't give you the right wheel offset, walk away. Warning: not following the recommendations above will likely increase the chances that your rims will rub (which means you will have to trim your tab, or roll your fenders).

See my sig, +45 will work but you must trim the fender tabs and it WILL RUB in a hard corner with a full load.
