Need Opinon Please

I'm getting some Super Advans Gen.II 18X8.5 front and 18X9.5 rear. My question is, Should I get them Black with polish lip or just plain silver ?

black rims along with window tint should look nice on a yellow 8. Also, if you have strakes, paint them black to match rim color.

Oh, and check out this forum about having wider tires in back.

https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-wheels-tires-brakes-suspension-55/so-you-think-staggered-tires-wheels-great-idea-50607/

It won't handle as well and its not like you have a drag racing car or anything. Also, it will just add weight to rear wheels which will make you slower.

But, do what you want because it is your car.

the black rims & strakes should go very well with the black on the bottom of the side mirrors. please post pics when installed

I vote black. They would accentuate the black already on the car. Just my opinion of course.

Super Advans Gen.II are hot! Honestly you can't go wrong with either color. Eventually, after you hook your car up, get the center powdercoated to lightning yellow.
