Default Need your opinion on some rims

My parents allowed me to get something under $1,000 for my birthday this upcoming Sunday. Since I don't play Video games any more, and I'm "obsessed" with my car, I thought I'd put some new rims on.

Ruff Racing
Price: $700.00

Specifications:

18 x 8.5 , bolt pattern 5 x 114.3

Do you guys think these would look nice?

with 18's you should go concave

wheels with lips look better in 19" and 20"

what does the 4 mean?

I hope they are not +4mm et

Well, I think the major question is;

Will they FIT?

Can't beat this deal. Staggered (the proper setup) 19" Enkies WITH tires for $900 shipped. They even look similar to what you chose and are a much better setup for your car.
