What about these



On this



I don't want a pimped-out car, nor do I want it overly traditional (bullits)...I thought this was something in between sorta like a classic mesh, but with the black spokes as a modern touch. I'm looking for honest opinions...

Nice...I noticed he has a lot of sidewall on those tires, which isn't bad. Is that the look you'd go for as well? I don't want a little thin strip of rubber - I prefer a meatier look for the tire. Probably would be a smoother ride, too, no? So, I guess tire size is pretty critical. If I go with 18X8.5 what tire size should I get? I think I'd like them staggered as well. Do I have to get a wider wheel for the back, then? Nothing extremely dramatic, just slightly wider than the front. I'm pretty ignorant about this stuff, so for that, I apologize.

I like those wheels too. Unfortunately you cannot get them anymore in anything but 8" widths ot less.

I had these ordered and the order was cancelled because of this. No eta on when new product will be available either!

Not no, but hell no!

Sorry.

I'll post back up if I find something that would work better, IMO.
