Hahaha

Definitely working on the more low! Thanks I appreciate it!! I really like the look!

The tire size is 225/40/18. I think generals run a little wider than most but I love the look. I didnt want much of a stretch. I can't wait to go lower but I want to get some quality coilovers and make sure I have the money to get my fenders rolled so I can do it right the first time. Im never going to be as low as some of these guys but i want to be right over the tire.

Thanks I love them! Definitely happy with my purchase.

I'm getting a little bit of rubbing on quick hit bumps up front but nothing crazy that im worried about.

Check what style lung nuts are required for VW wheels, they require lug bolts. I bought a set of aftermarket WagenWheels and had to hunt down spherical seat lug nuts.

^All that would be needed is a ball seat lug nut set if the wheel set is for/from a Euro car(somtimes).

there aren't many nice options for those if you are looking for a locking lug nut. I ended up with NAPA lug nuts. Some OEM cars offer these lug nuts but they aren't anything special

There are conversion spacers available that allow you to run a traditional "tuner" (conical seat) lug, but I would rather not put a washer between my wheel and lug.
