Can't help myself.... I switched the order to 18x9.5. The wheels should show up in two months. Will post the pictures after the install.

50% down. 6-8 weeks is what they are saying.

I got the gunmetal color. I don't think they call it anthracite anymore. The rim is completely in gunmetal color without polished lips.

I am having a little doubt on how the rims will fit with 255 series tires without rolling the fenders. It will be another 4-5 weeks or so before I get them. Once I do I will fit them and post my findings. I will be the guinea pig on this one.

OK, just got these bad boys yesterday. Unfortunately wont be going on car for another few weeks.
It took about 1 and a half weeks from ordering to my door from Perfect Run japan. Very quick.

these are 18 x 9.5 +29

They are quite an aggresive offset, but the dish/concave(ness)? aint that big. I didn't expect them to be judging by the Nagisa cars.

Nevertheless, I think they look great and they're as light as f@#k too.

the weights off the link posted are dead on as well, my 17x8.5 came in at 17.00 on digital scale, the link says 17.006 if you convert from KG/LB.

Apparently they clear the stock Brembos at the front so no need for spacers.
If you go 255/35. You'd most likely have to roll the rears. The fronts should fit fine..
You could probably run a stretched 235/40 without any rolling which i personally think would work well too. I don't want to start a **** fight regarding not running a wider tyre than stock blah blah. Thats been discussed to death on other threads. But I think by running a 235, you wont lose any of the legendary evo zippyness and initial turn in. Either way would be good IMHO.
This is all hearsay pre empting ATM. I will let you know definately once the wheels and tyres are on regarding clearences and what not.
