Default Decided against the 20's...take a look
Well after going back and forth on the size of the wheels and selling a brand new set of tires and taking a $200 loss. I found these wheels from volk and just had to have them. They are 18x8.5 and 18x9.5. They are the CE28-N in the mercury silver limited edition for 2003. The tires I ended up buying are the avs es100's 245/40 and 275/35. Let me know what you think. I should have them on the car soon. The car is a 92 Sc400 black in color. With Eibach springs 1" kit.

Ok size lip. Would have liked a little bigger. If there is a way to post more than one pic at a time please let me know.

Your SCV8 thanks you for selecting 18s instead of 20s.

Beatiful selection BTW
