Talking Rim and Tire suggestions

http://www.cruizinconceptswholesale....heels-rims.asp

hey guys i saw these rims on cruizing concepts and fell in love with them and want your guys opinion on them. i was thinking 18's all around and goin with 18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the back but there is other options avalible too so i could go to those but im getting a set of lowering springs cause its at stock height and theres tooooooo mch wheel gap. plus i also have the stock buillet wheels on there now i think ar 16's or 15's. any input will be greatly appreciated thanks guys.

ps. the ones im looking at are the flat black ones near the top

Not a big fan either. I'd order whatever wheels you go for from American Muscle. I've heard very mixed reviews about Cruizen....and I'm saying that politely.

Keep your stock bullets for a winter set/extra set, they will come in handy big time. Also, what color is your car?

yea looking again i dont think they match my car. my cars is true blue so i dont think black will look very good. plus i dont know exactly how deeep the dish is on the rims. but if i do change rims, and i will keep the others thanks for letting me kno that, but i dont kno how big i should go 17 or 18 and is it a good idea to go with wider in the back? and how abut the lowering springs will that affect the size choice, i know im not gunna go to 20's or anything.

I like the cobra reps that have rivets in them, but they are sometimes hard to find.

I personally think they might look good. Or go for the black chrome right next to them. My friend has deep dish 03 cobras in black chrome on his 03 cobra and they look tight. But its your decision.
