Default some pics with new rims

so i got some rims for my car.. drifz 207 ... 18*8 +35 225/35/18 all around
wish they were staggered and some volks or works or somthing name brand my girl got them for me and i have to give her props for it.. think if running 225/40 front and 235/40 rear .... think thats a good move to make

Looking good, you can always get works/volks later down the road when you come across a deal. Since they're not staggered, I'd just run the same tire specs all around.
