they are stretched tires so they dont rub and thats the look that i like and as far as hitting a curb it dont matter how big your tires are your going to mess your wheels up its a curb....but no i dont rub i have about -2 degrees of camber and rolled fenders and relocated the bumper tab...

you know what really helps? is to get about a -2 degrees of camber and roll your fenders and also relocate the bumper tab.... that should do it....mohahahaha

i rolled my fenders too... but i had 18x8 up front and 18x9 in the rear. offset was 40 rear 40 front.

I dunno, is that chrome or a "hyper silver" like paint?

As far as the curbs, I think what Dan is trying to say is that your wheel is going to be the first thing to hit the curb whereas in most applications it is the tire that hits first. You will get more than a little rash, you will get full face scraping.

But as Sandy said, if you dont hit the curb, no sweat.

I actually like the look.

the wheels look nice but paired with those tires it looks like it belongs on a VW

Not digging the chrome, but loving the offsets and sunkface rear.

Anything above +50 is for women.
