AME Tracer FS-01 18X9 +31mm
FINALLY new rims for the 8...cant mount them on the car yet as my car was broken into last Friday....pending the body shop....

The AME dealer told me the weight for these rims were 20.6lbs. I tried weighing them myself and it came to an even 20lbs. BUT, the electronic scale i used was quite old so i think im gonna get a 2nd opinion. Hope to have em on next week...any suggestions on wheel locks?

ENJOY

looks nice.

can't go wrong with any mackin lugs. muteki or rays will be fine.

however, im sorry to say, if someone wants to steal your wheels, wheel locks won't really stop them.

I was looking in the '18x10.5's fit!' thread and I noticed that even when the rim itself was mounted on your car, it would still tuck under the fender. My rims stick out a bit in the front. Did you change the camber of the fronts? Is it possible that your upgraded brake rotor gave you more room to tuck your wheel? I'm still basically stock...

No you won't. It will start rubbing the outer rear fender lip long before the front is a problem.
