Nice. I'm a sucker for clean 5 spoke wheels.

nice man! i dont really like 5 spokes but it looks really clean,
do u know if you can use 20's on the ride?
did u ever consider a staggered setup?
i wanna get some wheels but im kinda hesistant on what to get?
any info would help.

nice ride by the way!!!!

yes you can, but i think 20's would be just wasting the ability of the 8 completely
no, i want the 8 to handle with the same quality as it did with the 18's, staggered would have the pontential of having understeer
search
thanks

Ooooo! I really like those wheels. I bet they'd look great on a red or white 8 also. And look at the tread on those BFGs! Looks like you could go off road with 'em! Nice choices.

um, whats too low? the car? if so, i coulda sworn that a lower center of gravity meant better handling, but then again, im no a physics major or anything
