Just threw on some 255/285 on some RE30 10/11 and those tires look way too small for those widths. Should have gone with some 265/295. Oh well maybe next time.

So is formula silver kind of like an SBC? Or is it polished?


And what finish is this?




Or is the "rainbow effect" just caused from the lighting, and not the actual wheel itself?

This isn't meant as a knock on anyone, serious question.

Is it becoming more popular/stylish to go with a smaller 18" wheel with a thicker tire and sick drop?

If so, is it because people have realized that performance and comfort go hand and hand with a nice fat tired 18?

Serious question. I've just noticed that a lot of these cars are going with an 18" setup while for so long 19's were the rage. Have I been out of the Z scene that long? I've got a G37 now and am contemplating 20's but now may reconsider after seeing how great an 18 can look. Whats the poing of going +1 on the 37.

+1
You can really tell a difference when your rolling on 18's, the ride feels so much better. However 19" for the street are just sick looking. If I had only one set of wheels I would go with some 18" with a sick drop! Just MO
