    Hey, ok heres what i want to know, can i use 18x8 front and 18x9 rear both can come with either ET35 or 42? which would be better? and do i need spacers and what size tires would you use, and will it rub in the rear with Koni FSD+Eibachs??? thanks guys, getting real close to buying wheels, i just gotta make up my damn mind! ARGHHHH!

    I don't know if i should just get 18x8 all around or go with 18x9 in the rear :)

    Well if you keep it 18x8 all around and get spacers for the rear, you'll be able to rotate your tires a lot easier.

    staggered looks sick ;) 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 here :) i think 18x8 all around will look hideous, at least 18x9 all around...but that just me...

    depends on the tire sizes you use and how low you are.

    I did - when the car was @ stock height (weird). The upper arm rubbed the inner lip of the wheel on rebound. Once it was lowered, the upper arm cleared the inner lip of the wheel.

    i mean, do you guys think 18 inch is going to look that bad?? even if i use like 18x9 all around, and put spacers in the back? cmon, whats half an inch.

    Plus,i really cant use 19" around here, we prolly have the worst roads in the US :(
