I think for these rims, my next set of tires will be 235/30 front and 265/30 rear which should fit perfect for me.

I'll get more pics later

They are Stern ST-1. I know a lot of people don't care for that brand here but I like them. They are not super heavy like they say. Only 5lbs more than oem. I plan to powdercoat my oem wheels & switch off every few months with these. I will probly powdercoat these too after I get tired of chrome.

that couldn’t be more wrong. Those wheels in 18 X 8.5 are 29 lbs ea!!! That’s 10 lbs heavier than the 19s I run… For any OEM size, these are going to be significantly heavier… But from what I can tell, you aren’t really interested in performance as much as aesthetics – so it’s no biggie… just don’t embarrass yourself at the track with those.

^^^ Ooops typo. I corrected it. I used a scale on oem & these. Yes these aren't for performance or I would have got something else. I would laugh at anyone with these on the track too! LOL! These are for my daily driver. I doubt the weight will make that much of a difference.

Cremaster, 19x8.5 +45 did you need spacers at the front to clear front suspension? I'm getting 8.5 +43 and a bit nervous at the moment.

43 in the fronts might not look too good, unless you run spacers. what wheels are they? pics?
