18's Aftermarket Wheel Thread
 
Is anyone planning in sticking with 18" aftermarket wheels? If you have them post them! I'm trying to figure out what specs to go with...

I've got TSWs.
18x8" ET35 with 225/40 tires, square setup.

Not really. Don't want to lose the comfortable ride.

Let's get some more pics in here. Trying to decide on 18's vs 19's. Was looking at those same TSW's.

19's typically look a bit better, but if I can get a nice, wide light 18" combo, I'll stay that way.

^ Nice Volks. I wonder how the 3IS would look with TE37s.

That's exactly the wheel I'm looking to go with TE37 SL in Gunmetal.

You and I think alike. How it performs is the most important thing, not some "lowered look" or massive wheels.

Like you, I will also stay with a "square" setup, to minimize understeer.

For me It's not to minimize understeer. I just think it's useless with 255 rear tires on a 220 hp hybrid.
And the road niose is morse important than the beefy look.

Not aftermarket, rather they're oem, just not to the IS line. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...3e11974600.jpg
