Those are XXRs(sportmaxx) Its not a coincidence that they look exactly like the bbs lms, and works. That is their goal with all their wheels, but to answer, yes they would look great.

The design is pretty cool, but all those lug nut holes really kill it for me. Are you still at this height?


Even with 18x8+38 w/ 225/40 and a moderate drop, my fronts were rubbing. Depending on negative camber and tire stretch, you will have to roll or maybe pull the front fenders a little. It can definitely be done, it's just a matter of how much fender work you want to do.

ive been looking for a set of chrome stockies. but shipping all the way from cali to va would probably be pretty costly and who knows what the wheels would look like when they got here lol. but how much are you wanting for them i may take the risk lol
