Thats what im planning on getting Varrstoen, but im looking at 18x9.5 +30 with 235/40 for the fronts. I think i should be ok looking as my fronts will be +30 not +15 and i will have less tire

Got these back from ISS last night. Now I just need to get some tires. I'm thinking Hankook V12 Evo or whatever, 295/30 rear and 255/35 front.

Thanks!

They're ISS Forged. They are based on the FS-6 but I talked to Brent Villareal (I don't remember his username on here but he had a blue RB26 FD a couple years ago) and he did them custom for me. I think they look pretty much just like the FS-6 though haha. But he said in 6-8 months they can cut the faces exactly the way I want. I like these, but I wanted them more concave and not convex like this.

IIRC the sizes are 18x9.5 +17? front and 18x10.5 +12? rear. Those are my offsets right now with the TM02s with spacers so I figured I'd stick with the same but without spacers and a good size lip.

Speaking of which, here are a couple pics from the meet Friday night.

Thanks! I've always wanted wheels with lip though. I do love these AMEs though.

Wow, even with the widebody those rims do seem to stick out quite a bit.

Are you sure you're okay with that?

Nah those are the only pics I have right now. I just wanted to snap quick pics so I can show them to the guy I bought them from.

I'll get better pics later on.
