Anyone try these???

I'm looking to get some new wheels/tires and ran across these at Tire Rack. Anyone try these or what do you think about the offsets?? I'm on Stock M Sport suspension. If these work, what is the best size tire to use without rolling/rubbing? Thx!

Front = 18X8 ET 42 or 18X8.5 ET 40
Rear = 18X9 ET 45

I can't comment on the technical aspects, but can say very strongly, BUY 5, not just 4.

Pretty sure you'll be fine with 225/40/18 (F) and 255/35/18 (R). The offsets seem within scope of what the car is able to take.

Not sure how the classifieds are in your area or if you have some particular love for those mags, but there could be a great deal on tires and wheels just waiting for you. For reference, a whole set of 18" rims mounted on summer tires wouldn't set me back more than 1000CAD if I take my time to shop the right deal.

Good luck!

Yeah, That is the particular style I'm looking at getting and been scoping out craigslist, but nothing good yet. I want to pull the trigger on these wheels, but not really sure how they will sit in regards to the fender....I also like the weight of the wheels.
