does anyone have aftermarket wheels and have not lowered their car
Here's my car on the 18's I just got.
FRONT: 18x8 with 225/45/18
REAR: 18x9 with 275/40/18
QUESTION: Do you guys think I would be okay going with 245/45/18 on the front even though it's the exact same overall diameter of the rear 275/40/18 tires? I think the fronts just look too small with 225/45/18's on them.

Here's mine with 19's and stock suspension. I think mine needs to be lowered a tad also. The back wheels have a sizable gap i don't like so I am going to be getting Tein S Techs and a camber kit. I heard the ride is a little to soft in the back with the S techs so I am not sure if I should go with the eibachs?
jleonard - I have been wrestling with the idea of what size to get for my aftermarket 18's....I am going to be getting
Fronts - 18x8.5 with 245/40 rubber (+25 mm offset)
Rears - 18x9.5 with 275/40 rubber (+30 mm offset)
so the 245 should fit. The above is Nismo's recommended setup that I got from another member.
I'm looking now at your 18's...Are you happy with the size? Are they too small? I'm upgrading from 17" stock and I'm really having a hard time debating between 19's and 18's....couple hundred dollars difference though....
.............what to do what to do................

I am glad to see alot of cars that are not dropped. I like the ride and handling as is. This cadillac butt do not want any thing to change. So I will joining the undropped club this summer. Those that have posted I like the look.
