max pics with new wheels

Ok finally got my wheels and tires put on yesterday. After 7 weeks of waiting. Worth the wait. I love the feel of the new rubber and look of the new wheels are awsome. The wheels are adr m-sport hyper black in 18x7.5 and the rubber is yokahama es100 225-40-18. If anyone can host my pics for me i would appreciate it also. Thanks.

dude not to rain on your parade, but 7.5" is too thin for an 18" wheel along with 225 tires which are WAYYYYY TOO THIN for 18"

You don't necessarily have to get wider wheels, just wider tires. Perhaps when it's time to change the tires you should look at getting a 235 tire. Nice lookin' wheel.

That is not true. t56gen3 has M-Sports in HyperBlack 19x8.5 with a 35 offsett and 245/19/35. I just bought the same in Hyper Metallic Chrome. No tires yet though.

Lots of members have 18 x 7.5s on here with 225s. They look good, although I always thonk wider is better.

looks sweet man, i wanted those rims for the longest time, and dont worry what people say about your tire size, it looks just fine with the drop.

thanks for all the feedback. I ordered them from discount tires and he said that wouldnt fit becuase they would rub after i dropped my max. Oh well im happy. Now on to more modding....next up hotshot headers.

Rule 1- Don't listen to any employee of Discount Tire.

I've seen a 5th gen with 19x9.5 Enkei Aegis.

Actually those wheels are not bad.

They look nice on your ride. Too bad you didn't go with 18x8.5" wheels. They wouldn't rub at all.
