Default Here's what I'm gettin' Whatcha Think?

OK,So after much deliberation I decided on American Racing Cannon wheels only to find out they are currently out of production with no immediate plans to resume and nobody has them in a warehouse so.... I went back to Square one and i have decided on this Eagle alloy wheel in an 18x9 I ordered them tonight Through National Tire and Wheel...

And this tire in a 285/65/18


How do you guy n gals think it will look with my 2" coil spacers?

Hopefully you got polished. Aluminum shines more than chrome ever will.

Those are the wheels I'm going to get, except black.

I like the wheels, but are you aware that a 285/65/18 is only a 32.5" tire? You have 33" right now.

i like the wheels and the tires you need to get at least a 33"x12.5" wide tire for it to really look good with that aggresive tread and you should have no problem clearing those as well but good choices just go bigger on the tire

I agree with everyone else, Rims look great but go bigger with the tires and you won't regret it.
