plus, they're easier to resell that way

Kind of look like your current wheels only in 18"s...nice offset and sizes too

Rezax II's are nice and all, but way too played out too many people have/had them. I'll probably try something different..

Yes, we want to see some picssss.

Do you have hammered the inner fender on back? There's a little edge about an inch or half up in the fender. After hammering you have a lot more space for tire.

Actually I have begun to consider this option. With 18" in front I can go enough low but i'm worried about the looks. Front and rear might look dissimilar. With aggressive wheel sets front will poke and rear will be tucked if lowness is must This option came to my mind because I have problems finding a decent wheel set. Next wheel set will (hopefully) be so aggressive that the diameter differens doesn't really matter anymore when reselling the wheels The wheels might have to be sold separately anyway.

I vote 18's. I don't have an aggressive fitment. But, I still like the way she looks until I can find a set with more lip. I'm on ksports and can at least two more inches down.
