Default TSWs are in! few pics
finally got rid of my beat up factory chrome rims! these r 18x8+40 and 18x9.5+35, it will rub the fender if i lower it too much, but will lower an inch front and rear soon. will get smaller size tires next set.

They rub the fender if you lower it too much? What tire sizes are you running? The tires do look pretty fat, but those wheel specs are very conservative so you shouldn't be rubbing at all.

the fronts are 235 40 18, rears 265 35 18, if i lower the car like 2.5 inches, the sidewall of front and rear tires will touch the fender.
