Those are much better than the wheels you have now.

By the way... have you ever heard of Paradox Interactive in Sweden?

No, the only thing I know was an old DOS app for document pipe welding back in the days.

It was named Paradox.

^I'm thinkin' he went with either 8 or 8.5's since the profile is 235

Offset would be nice...

Taking a guess tho:

18x8 +45

or

19x8.5 +45

18x8 +45 thats right on the money.

I don't want to mess up my wheel alignment when I go from stock wheels (for road use) to Tenzo-R (for track use)

Otherwise I had gone for 18"x9" and 245-255

Thanks guys!

This weekend I will get my KW Inox V3, Agency Power swaybars, GT Spec stutbars, Greddy Trunk bar, Excoticspeed midpipe & Ageny Power brake lines installed.

Perhaps the company will give me R888 for my rims in the same time (well not give but let me pay them later then I can afford it), then I'll post pictures.

I can't wait until the weekend!
