Ordering One-Off Jesse James Rims...

Next week, I'll be ordering my one-off Jesse James Rims. They're 18X8, and will be anodized black with a chrome lip. I'm getting a deal on them through the manufacturer, I'm getting them at 40% of MSRP, which equates to about 400 per rim. I know thats a little high still, but I believe that it will be worth it. They are gonna partially sponsor me, which is why I am getting them at that price. I know some of you are against their rims, and the whole bling factor, but once they turn out, and you can actually see them, I think some opinions will change on them. Also, what size tires should I get, I have a kit thats going on in the next two weeks (black widow front, octane sides and rear, and z3 fenders). I will be lowering it as well (hopefully Air Ride finishes that kit for our vics soon, or i'll have to put on the teins and camber correction). I know the fenders will more than likely have to be rolled, which I'm fine with as well. I was just wondering if tire size would play a large factor in how much they will have to be rolled, or if that is irrelevant to having to roll them. anyone have 18X8's on theirs with a drop? Do the fenders have to be rolled, or is it something thats extra?

Nice choice can't wait to see them, as far as the width goes it will be hard to say if you will need to roll your fenders or not it all depends on the offset and if you will have your camber adjusted. I think it will be a tight fit.

don't have pics yet, cause they are being made, i'll have the only set of em. there anodized black, and have a chrome lip. said it'd take a while to make them though, so it will be like 2 months before i actually get them.

Cool, are they going to be like chopper-style rims? I don't know how well that'll mix with the import look, but it sounds like it could work.

As for the rubbing, that all depends on the offset.
