lots of cars
I'm looking for another set of 18x9s for the rear. I bought a set of E63 graphite 18s but i sold them to make money off them. I'm not about to drive on 2,500 wheels on a 3k car either. The 18x9s fit fine on the rear with a 40mm offset and 245/35/18s. You just need to roll the rear fenders to make them fit...

Hey...got a question berti...or anyone experienced.
I have 16x7.5 right now running 205/55

Would it be okay to run a 50 series and stretch the tires? If so, what should be width be instead of 205?

(not hi-jacking the thread berti)

Jetta
I know Im really late on here but I just wanted to point out that on this Jetta those are actually 18x13 with 255/40/18 stretched tires. It belongs to a guy on wheelwhores.com

This is what 18x11's look like on a Jetta.

couple of Benzos
that black jetta has 18X11 with a 245/35/18 tire and he's on Air ride, a bit too much poke in my opinion but sick non the less
