I have coupes now and my wife will be taking the car over for a yr or so. She wants chrome wheels and I like oem style. How will these sit compared to coupes. Ill be running a 225/45 frnt and 245/45 rear. ID LIKE TO BE CLOSE TO FLUSH.
I cant figure out how to post ebay link. There 18x8 and 18x9 with a 30 offset

Compared to the Coupe Rays, the front will be same & the rear will extend out an extra 9mm. Not anywhere close to flush.

Nortex, when you ask " how will these sit compared to coupes", I take it you are referring to OEM 19's ?

No your wheels will not be flush. If you aren't looking at spending money on wheels, just buy some spacers which are a lot cheaper.

Why not just look for a set of chrome OEM 18s? If I were to run OEM again it would either be those or the G37 10 spokes.
