I'm contemplating getting rid of those 18's and getting a pair of focus svt wheels. Trying to eliminate the wheel gap a little w/out lowering the car b/c i cant afford it. I was thinking that 17's w/like a 40 side wall would look a little better. opinions?

Yea tell me about it. I bought the all 4 wheels w/rubber for 400 bucks though. So i couldn't pass up the deal. I might keep the 18's and get new tires for them with bigger side wall. What size side wall do you think would look good?

Nice car. I saw the dealership's name and this was the first thing that came to mind:

Don't buy wigs that come off at the wrong time! Call Morrie's Wig Shop!
 
I wouldn't go with FSVT wheels, everyone runs those, and they're not all that "hot" if you ask me... you should run a 40 series sidewall a it'll help the ride a bit. and for lowering springs you can get a set for a couple hundred bones, (same if not less you'll spend on FSVT wheels & tires)

i'd keep the 18's they look good, just needs a drop and or a 40's sidewall depending on how big of a drop u go w/ :cool:

I actually agree, unless you are going for a factory look (I was).

novellino21: I would stick with those 18"s but get slightly bigger tires, and see if you can live with the fender gap, until you can pull together the cash for suspension.
