Yes I figured that much. Thats is why this was my primary looking place. I am not sure if everyone realizes this but I am primarily looking for good matching rubber. My jaw hit the ground when I went tire shopping for the first time. This will be my first set of rubber. I streched the stock conti's on my 07 to 40K. I was also very happy with those conti's when they were new so I figured there may be some new pulloffs floating around here from guys that immediatley upgraded. Finding the post from Donedharm linked above confirmed my suspicion. His set of NA wheels mounted with 6K mile Pilot Sports would have been exactly what I was looking for. I figured I could have gotten tires that I was happy with and a set or spare wheels incase I damage one somewhere down the road. Alas, I was one week to late.

18 and 18 is fine with me as long as the offsets are proper. The 18" rubber seems a little more reasonably priced also.

Witchal, Please send pics! If they have reasonably fresh matching rubber that sounds great. I would even make a run to wilmington.

Thanks everyone!
