Default New wheels with pic 18x7.5

Here are my new wheels. They are 18x7.5 Maxxim Eracers with a 45 offset and 225-40-18 tires. I just got them put on and I know I need to drop the car about an in and a half to make it look good. The picture isn't the greatest but I'll put some better pics on when the weater gets a little drier here. Tell me what you think. Oh yeah, they are a gunmetal and they have a huge lip that is pollished so the stand out. I think they look realy good at night when the lights hit the lip.

I just wanted to also let everyone know how to save a little money on their rims. I got these from Speedandstyle.com for under $1,000 (rims, tires, mounted, balanced, and delivered). I priced these rims locally and I got estimates from $1,300 to $1,800 for the same package. (and the $1,300 was from a guy I went to school with who lowered his normal price) My girlfriend is in Girlie Girl Racing and they get 10% from Speedandstyle.com and I called and told them that she was in it and they quickly gave me an extra 10%. They didn't ask for proof or anything they just discounted them. So if you all see somthing you like there just tell them you or your girlfriend is in girlie girl and get the discount.

Nice rims. I've always liked the E-racers since they came out. They look good on the speed yellow. And you got a really good deal. I voted "I like it" on your sounddomain page. Enjoy

Nice choice. Good design and finish.
They look great with the Speed Yellow.
What do the wheels weigh?

They look good. Now you just need to use some Windex on your camera lens. Maybe if you stop carrying the camera around inside your pants!?! :P
