First Sedan on 12's.... Oh Yeah!

Test fitted my buddy's wheels to see how 18's would look on a sedan. Deciding against it and going to ditch the 20's and do 19's instead so I can dump it, riding on rim style.

I was going to buy these wheels if they fit and changed the color of the face and barrels but not gonna get these anymore. Definitely needed lowering but the car wouldn't be driveable since I'd be lowering it 2" more in the front and 3" in the rear.

Wheel specs are 18x10 -6 and 18x12 -7.









Photoshopped, but this is how I'd wanna lower it.



While we were at it, we test fit my wheels on his Y33. Way too big. 19's in step would look perfect.

18's too small, 20's too big imo. I think a 19" would be perfect! Also I prefer the polished silver look on your car.

Subject line is mis-leading. I was expecting to be amazed (particularly with brake fitment) by a truly unique G rolling on 12's, not 18's. Yawn.
