The problem is my fiance gave me a limit as to how much i can spend without getting the booty cut off.

So I have to keep my total cost under 2k.

I totaly agree with Justin though.

Im not into any colors other than silver with a polished lip.



And I want 9.5 or 10's on the rear.

I would like to do a 17x8 up front and a 18x10 on the ***. I just dont know if thats doable.

I don't think you should go with different diameters for front and rear. 18 by 8.5 front and 18 by 10 rear would be perfect. It seems like the size to go great with everybody who buys new rims. A 2 inch width difference between rear and front tires could easliy overwhelm the fronts when cornering hard, there needs to be a balance between the front and rear widths, and 2 inches just isn't enough IMO.

Dude 17x8 and 18x10 is way too much stagger. The car will understeer like a **********er. I'm 90% sure that 18x9's all around will work. Ask around on the other place

Yea I figured something like that. I just thought it would look badass. Im no suspension/wheel guru. I dont know **** about wheels.

I dont want to rool the fenders though so i would only do 17's

. I definitely want at least 9.5 in the rear though.

Dave, you won't have to roll the fenders for 18's in the 10 width.

But your suspension would have be a bit harder and the offset a bit smaller in the rear to fit those bitches in. After all, you would need to get 275's or 285's in the rear to get the full potential of those rims.
