Wheel decisions

I used to like 5 spoke wheels on basically everything but I find it a little played out now. 5 spoke wheels still look good on a lot of cars I just want to do something different. If money were not a factor I'd be buying wheels from Billet Specialties, but at $1100+ USD for 1 wheel my pockets would hurt for a while.

Yeah for sure that’s gonna hurt the pockets lol that’s why I was looking at the Ridler wheels they are affordable lol

18" actually gives you more choices for tire sizes now-a-days too...

BTW- You can fit 9.5" up front so you can four same size wheels and tires all around. 275/35/18's fit just right 😎
i plan to run a 205/45/18 up front and 255/40/18 in rear that puts me 25.5 tall 8 Wide in front and 26 tall and 10 wide in Rear my rally’sI have on it now are 26in tall so should fit nice

Any particular reason you're going so skinny?

Just for looks like the wide In the rear with a big lip I would honestly like to have a 7in in the front but that was was the narrowest tire I can find to match the height of the rear and 8in wheel was smallest I could find Ridler makes in the 18 without being custom with that setup my sidewalls will be 4in rear and 3.6 in front so should be hardly noticeable difference In overall heights of each just about 2in wider in rear

Although now that I look at that 275/35 it would put me even closer to same height as front at a 3.8 side wall and gets me to a 10.8 wide and only about $45 more for the pair so you have officially changed my mind for the rear !

I'm like everybody else in the world on this one. I LOVE Torq Thrusts! My rears just came in today. I'll be putting an old set of 275/40-20 Nitto 555Rs on until I wear them out. The wheels don't look like 20s in this pic, but they are. 18x7s on the front. I'll post a pic tomorrow of them installed. I highly recommend the look...………………….even if everybody else has them. I have them on everything I own...……..almost.
