Well I was going to go with 18's for a while till they found my wheels in japan but we are having a really mild winter and I finally found my wheels so temp 18's aren't needed anymore!

Dooh-

Didn't catch me till I looked at your avatar section and reading "mild winter". Makes sense why you wanted 18's. Soem reason, I think CA weather not realizing what occurs elsewhere in the states.

Exactly! I was hoping to buy some nice "thin" (~18x8) wheels for the winter so I could still rep Wald but we are having SUCH a mild winter I can wait the 2 months for my wheels to arrive then just throw them on when they get here!

BTW the kit will make the wheels look small.
after having bought three sets of wheels, I have learned that this is the best advice you can get

Brandicus-a drop would lessen the tire gap.
Get some of the JIC VIP FLT-A2's and get it scraping.
