Damn that looks good. I was looking at teh esr sr08 in 18x8.5 +30. Was afraid of having to roll the fenders. Did you have to mod the fenders at all or do any work to get the wheels and tires to fit? And what size tires you running?

Looks great, those wheels suit the body lines. Well though out mods :drive: how do the coils ride? Are they harsh?

The wheels fit great the tire I'm running is 235/40/18 but I think 225/45/18 would work better for your fenders cause right now my tires do rub my fenders on harsh bumps

The coils are harsh at first but once you break them in they ride pretty smooth a little bouncy but you get used to it.

This is what bothers me about wheels. Some wheels I've seen with +35 are already slighty poked. Then I see there wheel at +30 and they are flush or almost flush. Can anyone explain that to me?

Well the +30 or +35 refers to the offset of the wheel that makes a difference of how centered your wheel is they have a lot of offset calculators and tools that can help you figure out the perfect one for you
