Default Foose Nitrous Package?

Does anyone have a pic of their car with the Foose 18" Nitrous wheels on? I'm looking at their clearance package on CruizinConcepts website. Anyone bought this package already or running the foose wheels with the Nitto tires? Good? Bad?

I have pictures of someone elses car with the 18's on them. I got the pics just a bit too late because I DEFINITELY would have gone 18's instead of 20's!! Here I uploaded one to my own webspace but beware its a BIG picture (dont have time to resize it right now...) I can tell you that hte power loss going from my stock 18's to the 20's was absolutely noticeable. I bet its at LEAST 10 hp !! Also, I hat the fact that I have almost no sidewall now and worry about every single stinking bump in the road for fear it will trash my 700 dollar rim. PLUS I woul dhave saved like 800 bucks on 18's!!!!

I really like the Chrome Bullitts from Cruzin Concepts...have seen those? I thought about the same package but then I saw the Bullitts.

If you get foose wheels, get them in 20s. They look great. They do hurt performance though. I don't think the foose wheels look good in 18s. JMO.

Yeah I agree with whtcanbrwn...20s are the only way to go, everything else just looks to small with the foose nitrous, but yeah the power loss is kinda bad

Redrider0151, my car has 285/25 22's on Boss 304's... you have 2-3 times more sidewall than I do. Mine were on there when we bought, everyone likes them, they beat us to death... and talk about power loss, I have 3.31's. 4.10's are coming.

I am looking to change to 20's, you car looks great.

What tires and sizes did you go with?
