Staggered rim sizes on an FC do NOT look good, in my opinion; especially on a 'vert.

i'd say just about any 18 x 7 (or 18 x 8) with a 40mm offset would work. the main thing you have to watch out for is that your springs are not close enought to touch under hard driving.



Usually i'd say you can go 245 or so in the rear (if you want to) before having to worry about switching to coil-overs.



I think i will look ok as long as you compensate with a smaller tire height
