Anyone know the sizing and offset for the 18" wheels on the C4? I'm looking for a set of rims for snows on my new C4S and want to go the -1 route. Seems like the base C4 wheels is the best route but I want to make sure the set of 18 inchers I buy come from a C4 to get the offset right for the widebody. My salesman tells me the fronts are 18 x8 with et 37 and the rears are 18 x 10 with et 58 but that doesn't sound quite right. Thanks to everyone in advance.

The day after these pictures were taken, I put on snow tires/wheels. I bought Victor Turismo 18's with Michelin Alpin tires. They look good but not spectacular. The tire/wheel package cost less than 2K but I had to buy them from separate vendors (Tire Rack/Buy Wheels Today respectively). This is the setup that dealers in Chicagoland sell, but at a substantially higher price

Congrats! Very nice looking C4. As others have stated, the Cocoa interior is not a color that immediately comes to mind when choosing Midnight Blue as the exterior color, but it works. Enjoy!

That's a really nice combination for a 4 coupe. So far I have to compliment everyone on the Rennlist with putting together good color combinations. It's a testiment to Porsche cooking up good colors that go well together, and buyers who have the foresight to package them together. I, fortunately, have not seen that lizard green interior matched with orange in some time!
