A few pics of my new wheels

Just thought I would share a few pics with you guys.

Specs are VMR V703 18" Staggered
18 x 8.5 - 225/40 Nitto Invo - F
18 x 9.5 - 255/ 35 Nitto Invo - R

I love the look of them. Has a bit of poke and stretch and gives the car a real nice stance. Has a bit of a 1M feel in my mind haha!

Big thanks to VMR Wheels and Mars Performance for all their help. Very pleasing experience!

Looks good! Do you reckon you could fit a 235 tyre on the front?

I think you probably could...the 225's that I have on look ever so slightly stretched so I don't see why not

Thanks mate! I thought about it, but I think the 18's suit perfectly and I am planning on lowering it in the future as well so was best to go with 18's for that.

Thanks mate!

Car feels much more planted. The Invos are a good tyre but not as good as Michellin PSS and the car feels more stable around bends now than it did with the stock wheels.

Haven't had any rubbing issues either and I drive around fairly bumpy streets most of the day.

Overall very happy with them.

Awesome, I'm running similar offsets but in 19. Good to see you can fit 255 at rears. Any scrubbing?

No scrubbing issues at all.

Going to lower it soon. Trying to decide between Eibach or H&R springs
