why cant i find any 18" rims that i like
ive been lookin around and nothing is catching my eye I had to get a stud fixed on my back right wheel a used tire and a couple other things had big brand do it and figured I would get a big brand card and just pay for it then they approved me for a 1600$ limit so I was thinkin rims and tires big brand doesnt have crap if you guys can find any from big brand or just give some opinions with pics or whatever

Im currently rockin the 17s rims on the ls that a lot of you guys like but would like some 18 plz help a ls in need of some new shoes
 
i do kinda like your rim when I check the link it says volvo rims then C30 C70 S40 S60 S80 V40 V70 XC XR dont know volvo much but guessing thats like the models if so what type of volvo rims are they so I can try and search for deals
 
Those are replicas, good luck trying to find real ones. They are off of the volvo xc90 R suv, come in 19x8, but the replicas come in 18 or 19.
 
Wow $700 shipped for your wheels in 18"s not bad at all! Love that gun metal finish and the clean spokes.
 
see I hate being so damn picky im such an indecisive mothwe f**ker hahaha so I just type volvo xc 90 r replicas see wahts kinda funny is I remember seeing one of those by my work and was like damn I would rock thoses but they were 19 lol

The real ones are 19's only. The replicas are made in 19's and 18's
 
Sure they do...but the rubber for those costs a lot more money.

Plus 18 is closer to stock ride.

Not that much difference, maybe 200 dollars more for the set. The rears for staggered 18'' jag wheels are about the same as 19's, you would only save a little on the fronts
 
so ebay is really the only place I will find the replicas for a desent price I should just make big brand find them and buy them and ill buy them off big brand hahaha if it were only that easy
 
I'm kinda kickin myself now for not getting the pegasus wheels when I had the chance lol
 
Yeah, they aren't bad.

A little photoshop I did a while back in them to be sized as 19's. They look similar to XxbmxlsxX wheels

^ What a difference painting the factory skirts did wow. I think 19s but look best but I could settle for 18s with the right drop. Its just we're RWD so we can take advantage of the staggered set ups. Has anyone ran an 18" version of a wheel in the front and 19" in the rear? Maybe an 18x8 by 19x9 or 19x8.5" would look amazing.
 
Yeah, color matched is the way to go.
