nope as in no go, or you think 16x8!'s will fit?! i'm hoping so, but some people i've talked to say 7's all around is the max, unless i want to go for that gangster look with the wheels sticking out from the wells

thx

ediy: didnt see you pic before i logged in, those look really nice. are those 7's or 8's? the seller claims these are 16x8, i havent seem them for myself

7's and 8's will fit no problems. Ive seen people run 255's w/ alittle camber.

that would be sweet. i'm running 15x6 phonies right now

whats the used market like for d90's?

would 300 for the 4 be a lowball?

are those in the photo above 7's or 8's? would that involve some work flaring the wheel wells a little?

Do they come with tires? Or will you have to buy new?

yeah, they do, newish tires

still weighing if its a good deal..

thing is these are still 16x6, i think my phonies are 15x6

i was starting to get all pumped about 16x8, just imagining the wide footprint

there is something about the phone dials that keep the car looking factory fresh

get 7's and 8's- like the ones in the picture- those were from an 89 s2- anything late offset 7/8 should work.
