Rim advice

RE: Rim advice
I strongly suggest you talk to somebody at your local performance tire store before you buy anything that big as they may not fit or leave room enough for the front wheels to turn all the way. You will have to get the offset just right also or they will stick out too far and maybe rub the wheelwells. And with most tire/wheel places, once you mount them you bought them, so get some good advice on how to measure a wheel/tire combo to make sure they will fit or you will be doing some unplanned body/frame work if you're not careful!

Eh, your car lowered at all?
Don't suggest getting a rim that large, as roundman said
Mine already rub pretty badly and mine are 17x9's
I'm going to need to swap the A-Arms for a tubular one so I have a little more clearance down there.
Can't turn the wheel ALL the way
Still can turn fine, but 18x10...
thats really big
Try not to go larger than 17x8 in the front

RE: Rim advice
Im going to agree!!!!!!
I have 17x10 in the rear, and occasionally they rub either the exhaust or the outside quater panel.
And 17x9 in the front and there is almost not enough room to turn all the way.
plus 18's will make for a rough as hell ride!

RE: Rim advice
I havent been able to find 17' saleen rims but I didnt know 18's wouldnt fit to well.
There is a guy I have seen around town with 18's and I dont really like it but he has plenty of room.
I really like the look of saleen rims, they are awesome! I wanted to go 18's in the back and 17's in the front. I havent seen that before but i think it would look so tough!
Thanks for all the advice guys!
