sorry for the crappy pic, was getting dark out and I used my phone, I finally got my tires mounted/installed the rims have been sitting in boxes for over year. I initially intended on putting them on the hatchback but the car is still under the knife and will be for a while (i'll update my progress thread soon) Car is running on Steeda Ultralite springs but it sit's too high for my liking. I got a set of LRS lowering springs in the trunk which I should be installing next week. Wheels are 18x9/10 tires are 255/35/18 and 275/35/18. This car is using 5 lug rotors so the center caps don't fit i'll change it eventually.

Ideally a 40 or 45 series tire would have filled the gap in better, it's not the springs. Love the rims but the tires seem a bit to small for them. A 35 tire is a pretty harsh ride too. Nice ride man.

Thanks, yeah I have run 35 series tires on all my car's with 18's for the past 5 years i'm pretty used to it, my hatch ran 255/35/18's and 285/35/18's and it sat perfect so after the springs i'll see how it looks
 
I'm thinking of running the same exact wheels when I go to 5 lug. Someone told me something about the center caps not fitting correctly. What do you have to do so they will fit properly? And by the way, car looks awesome!

SN-95 spindles and you will be fine, I have them on my hatch and the wheels fit fine, Thanks for all the responses everyone, tires prolly going to stay for now
