Get 17s
18's are too big.

I have them in perfect condition since I rarely drive the car, but not selling unless I get a hold of mei$ter$ which I'm thinking about

Looking for something like this?

These are 17x10 all around, but I'd prefer 17x9 up front with +35 and 17x10 Rear +35

These are 17x10 all around with +25 Rear and + 35 front. I think the front is sticking out too much for me.
255/40 rear, 245/40 front

Is it really rare?
I've no idea. If that's the case then i'll keep em hehe.
I just can't grasp the look and idea of 17x10 all around. I tried, just can't.

I love that setup, I'm with you on the 9's up front though. I was looking at a similar setup. According to all those guides available that offset/size shouldn't fit. Did you have to roll the fenders, adjust suspension, or anything else?
