Rolling on 18's

Just got the 18's on her, looks pretty nice, most likely gonna take them off and paint the center black, also dropping her about an inch and a half. Tell me what u think

Take those off and put some Fuchs on!

Just wanted to beat someone else to the common and boring answer around here. No, really like the overall look of the car. I do AGREE that black centers might help pull the whole look together. Shhhhhh, I putting two piece 18's on a longhood so I'm really the last to say anything. With the turbo blowing some flames, who's going to do anything but thumbs up?

How about tire sizes? Are those 225/40's up front? I'm running that combo, but have thought about 35's to get the front down some more. I'm just under 25"'s at the front lip.

They look good to me. What size tires and spacers are you running?

Ive got one too, a 86 widebody with 8.5 fronts,running 225-40-18 with a 2 inch spacer. The rear are 295-30-18, on 10 inch turbo twists with a 3 inch spacer. It hugs the road and feels like its on rails. I think the wheels came off a 96 993? Whatever, they look great. When I figure out how to post a pic, Ill do it. Soon i hope.
