I was just wondering who all runs 18" wheels. I went thru the ENTIRE members rides pics and tryed to find them. BTW lot of you guys/gals have some sweet rides! Anyway...I have been looking for a set of 18" for my wifes car on E-bay and other swap type sites and haven't found any.
Finally I just said "screw it" and bought new ones. I bought ASA JS5 18"x 7.5" wheels with Dunlop 215/40WR18 tires. They should be here by Friday hopefully.
I guess my main question to those running 18" is...what do I need to watch out for when installing? Am I gonna need to watch exhaust/strut perch/ inner fender lip clearances? Also my car is COMPLETELY stock in ride height. Which is another reason I went with 18's and not 17's. It will mosy likely get some more suspension mods in the future but just the 18's for now. Thanks for any advice you can give!

Thanks for the replies....one qusetion I forgot to ask was..what the hell is a "centering ring"? They said that I need them but they are backordered??? Anybody tell me what they do? Thanks again
18 Inch Konig Verdicts (Black Opal) with Eibach sportline springs and camber kits and it rides much better than when I just had the 18's with the stock springs. No problems yet (knock on wood!)
I have 18" Racing Hart M6 with Toyo 215/35 with NEX Coilover and Ingalls on all fours. The center ring for the rims help it to not vibrate while you are driving. In other words your sheit wouldn't shake like a b*tch.
