47223, Thinkin of 18's......should i?
Posted by bedlam32570, May-09-03 08:52 PM
ok i've really and truly thought about this and it's been bugging me. i've got 17" Konig Subs on my car and was thinking of putting the same ones on but in 18"s and swapping my struts and springs to the tokico 5 ways and springs. i originally have a 2.5 drop on mine and the wheel gap isn't bad but with the tokico's i'm looking at a smaller gap and want to fill that gap in. heheheh. anyone wanna talk me out of this.

nah 19's are just too big in my opinion. their just not me. 18's will fit nicely in there not that the 17's don't fit great. i'm just looking for something just a little big bigger but not too big. i just thought of them not too long ago wanting to change out my suspension and such.

yeah 18's are nice... i would love to get 19's but thas a little more added weight and not to mention a bigger risk as far as bending a rim... 35 series tires worry me.. they look sick though!!

Yah I am happy with my 18's. I thought about getting 19's but I think 18 look very good.

man if you get 19's with the eibach pro kit springs and the tokico blues, your car will look sweet, our cars are big on the fender part and would look extra nice
