Oh I don't need wheels I needed new tires....I barely passed state inspection. My husband got wheels and his tires were brand new on his old ones so I just put his wheels on for now.

 

"225" or "235" pertains to the width of the tire. That has nothing to do with filling up wheel/fender gap. That's the aspect ratio. The aspect ratio is the percentage of the width of the tire that pertains to the height of the sidewall.

In a tire that's a 275/35-18, the "35" is 35% of 275mm and that's the height of the sidewall. In your case, the same percentage of 10 more millimeters is going to be negligible and quite hard to notice.

 

lol....duh. I knew that I just had a momment. Cause I have seen some 355 on some RWD cars and those were wide as hell. Ok then I do believe both of our tires are 45. I know mine are, but his I'm not to sure.

EDIT: His are 40

 

That means it's not lowered enough

 

It's a bittersweet scenario though. Lower than what I'm at looks great, but suspension geometry and dynamics suffers. I like function over form.

 

Yea definately. If I go any lower my ride quality would suffer, I do know this. I am limited on spring choice for my car The only other springs that lower more than the H&Rs do are the STechs.

 

as far as the wheels i love 5-8 spoke wheels anything higher im not a big fan of unless theyre mesh style wheels...i currently have 18 spoke wheels and i hate them cus they take forever and a day to clean haha

so basically my long and senseless post is to say that i dig ur bronze wheels...slam it and call it a day form > function haha...or go ahead and save for bags haha

 

has the car settled from jacking it?

 

You're not joking......my stock wheels suck to clean.

 

Yea...we put them on yesturday morning and we were driving my car around all day and evening.
