If you like a dd I would go with fr500's, reason being is that yea dd's look sweet but to me after the initial thrill of having a dd rim i kinda wanted to go back to having a rim sit flush with the lip. the bullitt rims have too deep of a dish for me and the fr500's lip is somewhere in the middle, not really a deepdish just a dish.. heh but either way if you like the way it looks then thats what matters.

RE: The night before jitters
Looking good marty moose. Hm im pretty sure they dont even make DD in front (which i dont want anyway) but im kinda confused on these. I was going to order them tonight but from the description/pictures it looks like they are all DD? But once again i was thinking they dont even make 18x9 DD in front... These are not DD in front are they? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-9-...88873125QQrdZ1

RE: The night before jitters
What color is your car?
18s FTL! The tires are WAY to dammed expensive, and the rims are heavy.
They do look good though.
Man, screw all that though. You need that tuner and gearset first!

Yeah, man. Go 18x9 up front and 18x10 out back w/ shorter sidewall. - just cant rotate 'em.(Mine pictured above are 17x9 & 17x10.5) Or am I missing your question? [sm=icon_stickpoke.gif]
