i think im going to drop it another 1/2" or so in the rear and 1/4" in the front.

and yes, you all did read those sizes correctly...
18x9.5 +30 225/40
18x9.5 +12 225/40

not feeling the style or color, but the size and stance looks great. Your car is one of few that look good on 18's. Is your car AWD? also did you use spacers?
