do me a huge favor....when you take your pics...please take one of the car from directly behind so we can see how the wheels sit on the car..(if they sit out too far, in too far etcetc)...i would greatly appreciate it if you can do that for me...im really interested in these rims but havent been able to see a good pic like that and its the only thing that im wondering right now....thanks..and good luck with them.

Has anyone done any research on tires. I've done a little:

1. 275/40/18- $156 for Avon Tech M550 A/S Tire rack or $155 for Kumho ECSTA ASA Tirerack
2. 275/40/18-$167 for Kumho ECSTA Disount tire direct.
3. 275/35/18- $167 for Dunlop or $170 Kumho Tire rack
4. 285/35/18- $177 Sumitomo HTRZ II Tire Rack
If anyone has better deals please let us know Thanks!

I went with the 275/40/18 Falken FK451 with these wheels. I think they are about $160 each from discount tire. They look cool and hook good. Great wet traction.

Na$ty can disregard my questions...finally got an answer on the phone at speed depot and ordered me 4 18X9... said they will have them in their place by Wednesday and will ship out that day. Price I got, even after mentioning the rumoured $650 was $700 shipped. Figure $175 each ain't too awful bad.
I decided on the hyper dark, goin on black TA in sig. Whenever I get em, buy tires and all Ill try to get some pic's but that'll probably be a couple weeks.
Thanks to all for the info here! Been wanting these rims for awhile, just didn't really want to go 19" (just personal pref)

No prob man..... I knew the final price also i just didnt want to post it up because there not a sponsor........ Im debating............ Ill be going with the lights when i do....... i have alot on my plate right now..... the whole turbo swap and BS3 is a pretty penny.... alot of $$$$ Wit the tire prices above it what i found and $670 shipped is what i cam up with...... i think il go with 275/40's or 275/35's..........

Falken I've heard they are pretty good. I might have to take a look at those thanks. Glad you guys are getting some decent prices on these wheels. I told Alex at speed depot to give you guys the best deals he can becuase I thought that there would more than a couple of people buying from them. Can't wait to get mine this summer!!

I didn't even think to ask, but as soon as I get them I'll weigh em an let you know. (don't know what shipping they use so not sure when I'll get them, hopefully Saturday the 22nd or so)

Now for the brain hurting tire decision.. gonna go 275/35/18, just don't know what tires. All 4 the same for rotation ease, don't go to the strip, no rain unless caught out, driving hard at all times around town.... doin a lot of research here on the site in appropriate threads, just never realized it would be such a hard decision!

the wheels are sold from Hurricane Power Racing. (HPRacing.com) The prices are reasonable, and they are a little more responsible than the handjobs on ebay. I buy on wholesale from them, but im sure they sell to individuals too. The 19" hpr5 wheels (same as the ones on the silver ws6) weigh only 20 to 22lbs apiece. The 19" EVO wheels weigh a little more, but i dont think its over 26lbs. They even balance out great. The only problem with the wheels are that they dont come any wider than 18x9 and 19x9.5. if any one is interested talk to Mack at 1.305.629.8977

These are 19x9.5 and fit great, not sure if the 18's will have the same offset.

I know 275/30/19 is the correct size, not sure about the others. I have no rubbing with Eibach Pro Kit, which lowered the car about 1.5".

I didn't notice much difference but I don't race at the track to check my time.
