Very nice pics of some ISs on 18s!! I'm on 18s and never really thought about going bigger. I like the look of mine with the F Sport springs, and I have heard many people tell me that the sacrifice in ride quality is significant when you go to 19s or 20s.

Quick wheel question, specifically regarding the LFA knock offs..... I'm seeing these on eBay, but all of the sets I see are for (4) 18x8 wheels. I see staggered sets in the 19" wheels, but not the 18s? I have seen earlier in this thread where several people are running 18x8s all the way around, but seem to be running 225/40/18s on all four corners. Anyone running 18x8s on the rear with tires wider than the 225s? I don't want to put smaller tires on the rear, but I don't want my side walls to balloon out on the rear because the wheel is a half inch narrower. Also, how flush will the wheel be with the +38 offset? Thanks.
