FD rims help!
thank you. I was looking into buying some Konig Afterburners and I was wondering what the best setup would be. I have stock suspension. I want to run 18's but they only sell them in 18x8 or 18x7.5 which is narrower.. and was wonder what tires I would use with 18x8?
you should try to find another wheel, 18x8 is rather small and really doesnt allow you to run to big of a tire in the rear, probably 225 or 235 at most. Besides the fact konig isnt exactly known for making a quality wheel.
oh ok I wanted to get those konig afterburners with the burnt titanium lip. It would be the first i have seen on an FD. what brands would you recommend for a guy on a somewhat budget?

I have a black car and super close to buying the burnout kit. I want to buy everything at the same time. I love the looks of the black with silver lip but I think I want bronze or gold rims for a black car. what you think?
get some grams light 57S and buy em 18 x9 anything over 40 offset for the front and get em 18x10 in the rear with anything over 40 offset.... and OMG. paint em whatever color... but their gold rim silver lip is killer.
I agree, the reason you don't see those wheels on the FD is probably because of poor sizing options.
Not too mention the heaviness of that wheel design with the "stainless steel titanium lip".
It sounds like yu really want that lip but i wouldn't sacrifice fitment and performance just to get that look.
The wheels will be really sunk in the rear and just look funny.
Your tire size would be 235/40/18 on the 18's/
As for the 19's you can get the Burnout front and rear fenders, or the Feed fenders. Or just front fenders and roll the rears.
That would allow you to run the 19's in the front and rear. Tire sizes are approx 265/30/19 front and rear.

yeah I wanted that titanium lip, I thought it would look cool. I just want around 18' but I want some gold with silver lip or the black with silver lip. I want something a little light and won't really weigh me down. I was looking at some gram lights but don't know where to get them off sites. cause I want a tire + rim package kind of ordeal. thanks for all the help guys!
Ya send me a PM or email and i'll work on some solutions for you. Are you opposed to waiting 60-90 days to get wheels from Japan?
Typically wheels with LIP are NOT LIGHT. It's the one piece wheels that will be lightweight.
