the link ain't workin too well there, chief.

well now it is... just took a few hours. my apologies.

so if i were looking for rims, i would probably go for a lightweight 18*8.5. however, this wheel looks a bit on the heavy side (& very nice, I might add); I take it you are going for the eye candy factor, so i would probably recommend 19*8.5 up front, & 19*9.5 in the back. if you dont wanna go staggered, stick with the 8.5's, id say. the wheels look great, good luck!

I can't find much detailed info about the HP Lightning SS. The HP Lightning (different wheel) is about the same weight as the stock wheel. And, if I remember correctly has a 35 offset. One internet site said they were discontinued.
