I am getting a set of Chrome 03 Cobra replicas but I can't choose between 18x9 or 18x10.5 rears. What would you guys do? Got any pics? Thanks!

BTW, if I got 18x9 would I need a wheel spacer to set the tire even with the fender?

Please ask me how much my supercharger cost

9's are fine except for the track. Where you should/could use a different setp-up anyways since you burn em up. Why spend HUGE bank on 18X315's when you dont need them on the street?
