They are copies of mine so of course I like the style The only difference is mine do not have a universal bolt pattern. If you get them, get 18 x 9.75 +30. They are nice for low cost wheels.

then you would want 265/35-18 tires, that is what he is running and shady is running and that is the size I am going too. I am running 245/40-18's now which is fine by the are a bit stretched and i don't like that.

My buddy Hector has two brand new 285/30-18 Bridgstone RE050A's that he got stuck with that he is willing to sell for $200.00 walk out price and $250.00 installed and balanced. They are usually around $370.00 each. I am trying to talk myself out of buying them
