Eh... 18's are a little too big for a FC IMO. 17's seem to fit just right.

Personally I rock 16's... mostly for the perf value, and the fact that they are gun metal.

I've got a set of bling bling'n 17's for when I wanna pick up some ***** and have some *** to mouth fun with two or three at a time.

Yeah.

I too think 18's are a bit on the big side for FCs. My brother has a set of 18' RX8 wheels on his TII, and it looks a little dis-proportioned. I am more old school I guess.

I have a set of FD wheels powder coated white- but I like to stay in the confines of an OEM look.

That is probably the nicest FC I've seen. Kinda wish that just the spokes on the wheels were black with white on the outside edge.

But seriously, excellent car.

Thanks Fellas. Black on white rims would look pretty good. The spoiler was recently donated from an S5 and needs paint, along with the hood scoop.

I will see if I can dig up some pics of my brother's ride with the RX8 wheels.

This is a pic of my brother's car with the RX8 wheels. Stock ride height in this pic.

225s all the way around with either 25 or 30mm spacers. Front wheels do rub the quarter panels on hard bumps.

How can the front wheels rub the quarter panels?

The tires protrude out past the edge of the quarter panel.
