Well i got them on i like how they look the fronts and rears are both flush enough for my taste however i may invest in some spacers for the rear so i can poke them out of the fenders just a little bit. The fronts definately have no room for spacers without rubbing though so they'll have to stay like they are. Thanks alot for all of your help.

Looks good, the rear wheels don't look tucked at all.

Actually, it looks pretty good. Just a spacer in the back like you said, and it will be fine.

Also 18s to me only look right if they are not trying to much lippage. They look great in an aggressive fitment / Concave and with a really low car

Both AEM (Z, and S2k) cars run these very competitively in Formula D. If Tanner Foust can win the 2007 season title with your same rims then then they are probably good enough for your daily driver. Just don't BUY them from Sears.

I commend you for being smart about getting some bang for your buck rather than blowing your wad on some overkill. These rims are much lighter than your stock rims and will work very well if you couple them with some sticky rubber. Spend your hard earned money there.

Those "experts" looking down their nose at you right now don't realize how much others are shaking their heads at them. A lot of these "experts" around think if they spend alot of money on somethin it makes them an expert. It only makes them an "expert" at spending money.
shakes head @ Brand ******

Yeah, but they're the offset police, they're sure to come blazing sirens at you....better have your 20x13's ET-5 on 255/20 20's for the stretch look.
