new wheels put on. let flaming begin.
I just put these wheels on and they are 18x9 with 215/35/18 in the fronts and 225/40/18 in the rear.. I definitly need a drop so badly, but that's coming soon..
How do you think it would look if dropped?
Bigger rims?
advice, comments please!

Problem is the tires are too small.
You've lost nearly an inch all around in the front and around a quarter in the rear.
I'd suggest your next set of tires to be at least 245/40's to fill the wheel gap a bit. That will fix your speedometer as well.

ok, you asked...wrong wheels for that car-don't think a drop will make a difference at this point. try and find some different wheels. then a drop it...

Rims look OK. But your ties are way to skinny. I've got 225/40 front and 235/40 on my 8 inch wide wheels let alone a 9 inch wide

I mean your tires are not as wide as they should be. You should be running Anywhere between 235 and 255

Those wheels are a total different scene and in my opinion shouldn't be anywhere near an SC, but to each their own.

I agree. They don't look right on the SC, but I guess it's better than stock. The tires need to be bigger though.
