Exclamation My new 18" Wheels. PICs Included!

Ok, I only have 3 wheels. Apparently UPS didn't have enough room on the first truck, so I have another that is suppose to get here with my last wheel.

They put 255/35/18 on the rear and 235/40/18 on the front. Do any of you think this will be a problem when mounting them? I don't want the front tire to be taller than the rear. Anyone know if this is the case?
8.5f and 9.5r

UPdated Pics at 7:49

Whatcha thing? Be honest! not cruel just honest








I love them personally!

Since the other one will be here soon I'll just wait to mount them all.. Since I might need to drive somewhere before then.

No, they should be REAL close in height.

Somebody else on here just got a set of those(or just like them) on ebay.

They look nice.

I hope they are the same height. I ordered them with 265/30 and they put 255/30 on.
The guy returned my call and said he would ship some 265/30's at no charge.

I hope when mounted they are even though.

UPDATED PICS UP TOP! Though I only have 2 on right now because some jack*** at a shop put different lugs on the other side of my car that require a thin wall socket

I started ordering those same ones in chrome with tires 245f/275r for $1550 and he called me back saying it was a mistake....it's higher...I was like wtf and wants 100 bux more...so I just cancelled the order...wish he woulda honor what he told me...cuz I even paypalled the guy at bestwheel. Hope paypal doesn't charge money for putting back my money into the account.

btw, what color are your wheels? i can't really tell....and where did u get them at...at what cost if you don't mind sharing. please take some more pix.
