Posted: Sun Mar 07, 2004 10:37 pmThose are some sweet rims dude. Congratulations!
Posted: Sun Mar 07, 2004 10:46 pmGreat buy, they look great, congratz! You can take the scratched wheel to a shop and have it fixed for a very reasonable cost, it'll look new. Are you going to use the 235 tires? Are you worried about them rubbing? From all I've read, anything over 225s and you will rub. -JoeB

Posted: Mon Mar 08, 2004 4:13 amYeah I'm gona keep the tires. According to this speedometer web-based calculator, the 235/40/18 comes out allot closer than the 225 does. My original tires are 205/65/15. This says something like if I'm going 60mph I'm really going 60.1 / it’s in the web links forum. I'm having a hard time opening a new window so I'll post later. (If they rub I'm gona have to get the fenders tucked, rolled, cut or whatever you call it. Hopefully I won't have to do that. I think on the 04 there is an upgrade option for 235/40/18 Michelin/BBS but then again it’s the 04 with a differ design. 
Hey lucky you can get one made by Tito. I got mines made by him. Checkout the aftermarket upgrades forum for it. He is the author of the thread.
Thanks for your comments everyone! Much appreciated.

Just installed these yesterday. No rubbing at all. I am overwhelmed with the performance difference it brought to the car compared to the 15" steelys I had.
Only thing though is that I am not used to the road noise that the tires are making. And I guess I got to do another alignment and wheel balance because when I brake, the car goes to the right and when I drive it wants to veer away in any given direction.
Pics you want?? Well I want to do it right so ya gona have to wait till I install my CAI extension and new Greddy evo II exhaust next weekend and wash/wax my car.
All the pics will be posted here Next Saturday night.
