I'm planning to buy a set of rims. 18 inch but wasnt sure If I should get 18*8 or 18*7.5. I was told that it was the wideness but I would like to get a picture of the two on a eclipse, if any. I like the rims just to fit right. Pix of your 18's will be helpful along with the sizes.
ASAP

Throw some 245's on some 18x8's and you'll be set!

Wouldn't they rub? I thought 235's were the max for the 2g's with very little rub.

Crap, you're right :( I used to run 225's on my DSM but for some reason I had it in my head they were 245's. Sorry about that. 225's will for sure be fine, and 235's should be fine, especially since you are not lowered.
