LFA style wheels now offered in "18

I tried the link, and then entered my car. Result said that they wouldn't fit. Is this because of the difference between the front and rear? Not a bad looking wheel, but certainly question the quality at that price. $160 per wheel is cheap (relatively speaking), and the seller is making a profit at that price.....

Stock RWD is 17x8 all around with 225/45R17 front, 245/45R17 rear. Upgrade to the 18" wheels, and you get 18x8 and 18x8.5 with 225/40R18 front, 255/40R18 rear.
Either way the rear tire has way more width per wheel width section than the front, which gives it considerably more "bulge" in the sidewall than the front.

theres a fs thread where someone sold these in 19's off of a SGM 2IS which was great for me since my car is SGM. Maybe it will be of use to you aswell.
Just so you know guys... if you go to the sellers website OEMWHEELSPLUS . COM they have them on sale for 619.99 free shipping. i think i may just jump on these now.

I dont think so. I almost feel foolish buying these because they look just like the stock 17's we have just an inch bigger and i just payed 800 for a tire/wheel combo.

It will definitely look better. That extra inch makes big difference and these wheels IMO look different and better than stock 17's.

yeah the one inch sounds small when you say it but i know visualy its a whole other world. The design beleive it or not is almost identical to the 2011-12 stock 17's though except for the color. They do look a lot better and for about 1400 i can throw them no the car, drop it and get tires. not bad at all.
