I think i have 245 40 18 on mine It may be 235 cant remember righ tnow and its raing out side. Looks fine in the front but the rear has a big gap should be lowered to fix it.04 rims make it look mean though with a wide stance. mine are 18*9 all around
So.....the 04's will fit just give it a wider stance and
we'll have to use a slightly smaller tire?

right and they may stick out a little with 18*10s my 18*9 is maybe 1 mm stick out cant really notice unless you look. Definetely makes your wheels look wider than it is

so you have 04's on yours? The guy has two tires 275/35/18. should i use those? won't they make it look like there's a lot of room between the wheel well and the tire? Also should I use those for the 18 x 9's or 18 x 10's? someone told me to use 285's for the 18 x 10's. what do you know about this? Also, is our stock tire 27 inches tall or 28? and hey Sicksix you better beat me to those rims lol I'll give you the chrome ones he's selling me. i want black lol fits my whole theme of black on white.

Ok so I called americanmuscle.com and the guy there says that, the tires 275/35/18 will make the tire 22" high. Isn't that much lower than our tires? He also said that the only other size I can put on is 285/40/18, which is like 24". My concern is that when I had my other rims on there was a huge gap between the wheel wells and the tires. Although my car was lower it didn't look it. It just didn't look right and I hated it. Even now I have 245/50/16's on the rear and they don't look the same as my stocks do which are on my front. What should I do? Should I buy these rims?

I like these, I know they are 18's but I don't know what size tire they are. This pic is on the brsparts website. I contacted them but they did not know who sent the picture in
