Whelp....looks like tire install will have to be NEXT weekend. Lug nuts ordered from Amazon are still not in yet and should be mid-week. So the whole fender roll process and mount up will be done next weekend unfortunately. Rims look so sexsay with the Hankook tires mounted up waiting for action......getting anxious

Also wanted to note, the rim weighed roughly around 21.8 lbs averaging, and with the Hankook 255/40 combo, it came in a rough average of 49 lbs contrast to the stockies average of 48 lbs. So for adding 2 in more of wheel width (18x10) not to mention a low offset of +28 and only having 1 more lb in weight total, I'm satisfied with it.

So guys hopefully late next week the good news of shipping will begin. just take that with a grain of salt. I am told the batch of 18's are scheduled for final machining next week. We shall have to wait and see if it happens. Just letting you know what I am told.
the higher offset 18x10 will definitely be lighter due to a thinner mating pad.
Thanks, Rishie

Keep in mind the car already is lowered, just needs to be lowered more

'nilla I know, just that I'm not completely satisfied with the wheel gap myself ![Big Grin](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Look at it this way, you'll have a different color than mine on the SS, so it WILL look different
. We could be like the SS F14's bro's rolling into SS 13
Unless I can't afford it ![Suspect](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/suspect.gif)
What width/offset you get and color?

18x10 ![Big Grin](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
my offset is borderline aggressive only because i wanted to run 275's on all four corners![Big Grin](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
i'll be buying another set of wheels that are far more aggressive but i wanted something that can put down a lot of rubber to the road.
Still 18x10 tho
- like i've been saying - i've been stuck on this **** star's mentality regarding the width; 'If it ain't at least 10inches - i ain't ******' with it'
