Finally took the plunge and got myself this 18" wheels for my MPS. They are 18X8 ET40 with Dunlop SP9000 225/40/18 tyres. Car lowered about 1.5" and rear fender rolled and so far no rubbing yet....so touch wood

Anyway, if you are interested, these are the pics and I have to thank this forum for my research before committing to these wheels due to its lowish offset and hopefully I won't have problem with them.

They weight with tyre = 19KG/41.88pound, in comparision my stock 80% worn rubber + rim = 20KG/44.09pound. Not superly low weight but reasonable enough I guess. And thank for all you guys comments.

That's pretty good for an 18x8 wheel.

Looks good, I think they match up well with the Black Cherry, not too dark....just enough.

Thanks guys. I was going for bronze, but the guy who I got the wheels from convince me the hyper silver is better, so I guess I made the right choice
