yeah the 19 and up sizes add cost and detract from the classiness and ride quality. because the rims are STAGGERED is a minor pita but I suppose worth it. does anyone know if 9 inch width in front with 18s will rub?

Also, all of these can be staggard if you want.

These were really the only ones that I found that are a good make that are available in chrome and won't be like the big huge blingy fan looking wheels. (No offense to anyone that has wheels like that, but for the 2IS I just think it would be WAY too much.)

good post. someone REALLY should make a sticky for reliable rim shops. many of these online huts dont have a clue if the rims they sell will really fit your car.

but to answer your question since they are 3 piece wheels i guess they can adjust the trim and offset to whatever specs they see fit
