I'm having a hard time deciding on which size wheel to go with 17 or 18 on our project FD. I want something that fills out the fender nicely but doesn't look too big for the car. I want a silver colored rim does anyone have any pictures and or suggestions on what to get?



I also want to stay under $400 per rim

Privat Fahren's - That's what I'm getting. Oh, wait! No! We'll have the same wheels!



$263 for 18x8 +38, $276 18x9 +38.. discount tire has them, but beware, they're not available quite yet.



Go to www.privatwheels.com



Or, Volk GL57 Pros. I love those.. A little more than $400 each, though.. ARD T2 from the other forum said he can get me a set (18x8 + 18x9) for $1750 shipped, no tires

I don't know if there is a gain from going with the 18's or not, but I would get the Volks, cuz they are light and look purty..
