I currently have 18x8" ASA AR1 wheels all round, with 225/40/18 tyres. I've just ordered a set of 18x9" AR1's from germany [
]
I'll be replacing my rears with the 18x9's....but do I swap the tyres over (and have 225's strethed onto a 9" wide rim), or put on some 245 wide rear tyres? I'll be selling the 18x8 rears so I could just sell them with the tyres. I really can't decide what would look better! The stretched look is cool.....but then 245 tyres will make the back end wider which is also cool! What to do?
Heres a couple of pics of 215 tyres on 18x8 and 18x9 AR1's on a bora to give an idea of what the stretched option will look like:
Opinions? [^o)]
Also, anyone got any pics of 245 rear tyres on a golf?
P.S. I will have another set of 18x8 and 18x9 wheels up for sale very soon....pm me if you're interested
