Same wheels I have, except mine are the hyper chrome version. Same color car too, look nice. I had to remove the plastic fender lip in the back, because mine rubbed over bumps.

Thanks for the praises. Things starting to happen with the car now that I sold my BMW. Got the wheels/tires on her, my Rosen head unit will be in tomorrow, and probably in the next month or so she'll be heading to the paint shop.

This is my daily commuter, so I care about the ride somewhat, so if any, I will probably just lower the front about 0.5-1" just to even out the wheel gap.

The looks is very nice but 265/35/18 will probably -40HP on your SC300.

Default Stuck on Stock

I am looking to purchase new wheels and tires for my 99 SC400 - question(s) 1 - is 8.5 front and 9.5 rear the way to go? (2) Do 18" Rims require any lift?

Your car looks awesome!
