I was looking at the 18x9 rims too, but decided against them just due to the expense of the tires and very few shops carry that size around here. Plus I like the idea of haveing a really wide tire on the rear and a narrower (sp) one on the front. Other than that I do not see any problems with putting the 18's on your car. Are you going to up-grade your brakes? If so and you get the 18" rims you can put huge brakes on your car!!!

Yeah, the price for 18" tires is rediculous.

I was looking into those too and the prices are outragous. Besides the 17's are a widr rim anyway!
