18x8 +45 will work with 225/45-18 tires and either Eibach Pro-Kit or TRD springs.

You just have to be careful with tire diameter, because not all brands of 225/45-18's are the same diameter. For example, that size calculates out to 26" but Falkan Ziex ZE 912's are actually 26.3" (so I would not recommend the 912's because of the larger diameter).

Nexen doesn't make any tires in the 225/45-18 size.

dirty12 *** never had a car full of people ... 2 passengers at most ..... but 110 pound girls dont effect the suspension much ... lmao .. but when i do drive agressive... when dont i ... the suspension will rub front tires if i hit a bump in the middle of a really hard corner ,, IE 60+ mph on a on ramp loop . hope this helps /// the rear is a little high ... but a healthy supply of JL audio should fix that .

I can't help but imagine the white version of these would look like on my super white. Right now that is my dream setup. However, with a new house and baby. It might not be happening anytime soon.

I agree!!! I also have a SW and am wondering if I should go bronze or white....

Dude! go white for sure!

IMO the red stripe on the lip only looks right if you tie it in with something like painting the brake calipers a matching red, and/or adding some type of red pin striping to the body. Just my .02
