18s on stock suspension

does anyone have pics of their car on 18s on stock suspension? i'm trying to decide between 17s and 18s but want to avoid the 4x4 look and haven't been able to find pics on stock suspension since nobody likes to show their car off except when it looks best i plan to get coilovers in 2008 but even then ride height probably won't be too low (i live on a dirt road that washes out in front of my driveway when it rains) so i want to see what it looks like.


also pics not hosted on flickr or photobucket would be preferred as i can't see them at work thanks

Looks good. I'm sure they'll look better with the drop.

here ya go... 18x9 +32mm wedsport's on stock suspension (well stg 1 road///race) but stock springs and shocks still.. JIC's are soon to come...





^blue j20, 18's only make you slower if you buy an 18" wheel/ tire combo that is heavier than your orignal setup...

for me, my car is a DD not a race car so it won't make any noticable difference. and if i do happen to make it out onto a race track or autox course it's not going to be the wheels that make me slow, it's going to be the big blob behind the wheel.
