Been wanting 18's for a while now, but wasn't sure if they would fit!
Borrowed a set in the weekend and they looked sweet! Offset was way too high though!

Before:



After:



Then just replace them with a pair of Maxxim Ahead in the correct offset and it will be just the way I want it!

Cheers for the comments, but did anyone actually read what I wrote?

I will ofcourse be buying new rims in the correct offset! And by correct I mean ET20 (rims on the picture are ET42) and I will then see if 10/15mm spacers are needed to bring them further out!
