another "will these work?" thread

I know these threads get annoying. But, it doesn't give me much to go on. I think they'd look hot on my 93 CYM. http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.phtml?p=2026

most places list the width right after the diameter like: 18"x7.5"

stock rims are 8 inches wide. most cheap 18s are 7.5 inches wide to accomodate your typical fwd 'tuner' car which is a step in the wrong direction. most people on the forum that are running 18s go with a staggered setup. i for example run 18x8.5" in front and 18x9.5" in the rear which is what would consider pretty common as you do not need to modify the fenders with the correct offests. some people may run narrower but not many, and some people run 18x10" on all four corners. I would suggest looking around the wheels/suspension section and try to check out different peoples setups and see what you like. also instead of making new thread all the time you could reply with questions to other peoples, and even pm the mods from the wheels/suspension section as they are the true experts.
