Default What do you all think of these wheels?

So I been on the search for some wheels for a while now and came across these.

This is just a photo mount of the wheels on the car


The specs are:

18x8 all around
40+ offset
machined face with black inserts

What do you all think?

i like but you need to be lower for them to work with the car. You have way to much wheel gap lol Just my opinion

I agree. And it really dosent matter what others think. Its really about what you envision my friend. Personally I don't care too much for them but you could make them work for you. Id lower the car and maybe put a 40 series tire on them. Im running 225/45r18 and it looks great on a 8.75" wide rim. I have a set of 225/40r18 that I cant wait to see on this rim. Btw theyre on a set of xxr 527 5-114.3 x 8.75" +20 offset.

Well I will be ordering the wheels this Friday and hope to receive them within 1 week. I will go lower later this year. I just wanted to get the wheels first because I have the money available and if I don't buy them now im sure ill spend the money on something else.

Even tho wider wheels look good I will stay away from them because when I go lower I don't want to have issues with rubbing the fenders. I am also using the stock 225/45 tires with the new wheels. I was looking for a wheel with the same specifications as the OEMs and this is the one I ended up choosing.

BTW CelestialxOne, +20 is very low, lol thats close to the offset I had on my 2001 Mustang GT
I had Saleen wheels FRONT 18x9 - offset= +24 REAR 18x10 offset= +28
