finally got the new rims on the car yesterday. we went with 18x8.5 up front with 225-40-18's and 19x9.5 in the rear with 295-30-19's. they fit very nicely without any spacers. i may have been able to go to a 235 wide front tire now that i see the clearance but im fine with the 225's for now. We could have probably went with wider rear tires too although these 295's are some pretty wide meats.

we got 40k miles out of the original front continental tires
