Finally made a decision

my 1st very own set of aftermarket wheels.

23lb Itailan-made Sport Edition Tekno 18x8 wrapped in 235x40R18 Kumho 712's. Ordering first thing tomorrow morning.

help me make the right dec. with tires. Should I go with Kumhos or I could downgrade to Dunlop SP-10?

I think people are afraid to respond for fear that it'll add another 3 weeks to your decision time.

Personally I think there are much better looking wheels in that price range, but they're not bad.

all right weasel anyway, thanks for putting up with me I guess. It really took me a while to decide. I doubt there're better looking 18"s for the same price range as lightweight as these...

Look fine. Remember to save money for the maxspeeds. Going from 15" to 18" will give you big wheel gap!

the wheel diameter stays the same..so the gap should not be bigger than it is..my next mode I think is a window tint..then replace stock speakers...I got a lot to work for.
