    Honestly, not sure but those are nice rims. And I just have to get the turn signal mirrors from sigma if they are an easy install, they just look like they belong on there...

    My concern with tires like that is if you have roads anywhere near like we have here in the city, it's just impractical...

    Hello,

    Yes, nice 18" wheel sets indeed.

    I think 19" is a little too much and would bring me in trouble

    I also wonder if it is possible to lower the car a bit? For the looks?

    In addition to the tire diameter, you need to be concerned with the wheel offsets and width.

    Is there any need for air in those tires?
