I can't say that I'm a fan of 18's on gvr4s at all, and those wheels don't really go well with the car in my opinion. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

To each thier own, as my dad always says.

They looked sick on the Talon they came off of. I traded my friend a set of 18" Ray's G-Games (bronze w/ chrome lip). The Ray's didnt look good on the car at all. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif

Those don't look like shoes to me, more like flip flops /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif. I also think 18's are too big but its your car and you can do whatever you want. What size tire are you putting on them?

I think the tires are 235/40/18, but I could be wrong!

I've ran 18's on most of my TEL's with no regrets or problems. This being my first Galant, I figured it would be no different. Is there a reason you guys think 18's are too big?

I think that most 18's out there are too heavy and if you plan on keeping your stock brakes I hate the look of big rims and small brake rotors.

Probably 95 lbs. Would have to see her naked to make a better estimate.

This is also where most people give the details on what they got. You know, diameter, width, brand, etc?

I have 18's on one of my Galants and they still look small on the car. I have 17's on the other Galant and it's hard to tell the differance. I bought them cause they were cheap and looked good on the car. I am always harassing customers for having big wheels on their cars but these car are big enough for eighteens when daily driven. Too big for track events though.
