Also what size tires 215 or 225/35-18's. ? How's the ride.... :smile:

215/35, and Firm!

Depending on your suspension-
maybe even bouncy or rough.
One MCS owner with 18" wheels and 215/35-18 wheels told me after he drove my
MCS with stock S-lites that he thought my ride was very smooth (compared to his).
I have the H-sport springs, madness rear swaybar on most firm, rear pair of H-sport adjustable control arms and BMP front tower brace. I think my ride is bumpy and jarring at times on any roads not totally smooth- probably the runflats at work. :wink:

I have 18"s. I like them allot. Better ride then the s-lites. I am selling mine and plan on getting another set of a different look.

I have 17'x 8-1/2'' and have tire rub if the back seats are occupied. So I don't carry passengers.

I wonder if 17x8's are pushing it for clearance too? The 17x7.5's seem perfect. :wink:

17X8 are fine with 215/45 if ur car is not lowered :smile:

18X7 offset of 42 (or 43?), with 215/35 The ride is bumpy, but not overly so. I dont expect this to ride like a buick. If I had it to do over again I'd probably get 17"s for two reasons. First, tire choices. Second, I would worry less about damaging the rims with any pothole I come across...

I have 18"s also, and am happy with them. Car has been lowered some too, but is like on rails in the corners ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

what rims are those?

also what kind of drop? springs or coils?

>>also what kind of drop? springs or coils?
jigster has Kahn 18 x 7.5" custom wheels, Yokohama (not sure which Parada Spec 2 maybe) 225/40-ZR18 tires
with one inch drop using K&W Variant II coil over struts with rebound adjustment.

For more info on his car see:

He has not yet been on the track. Hard to believe! On the other hand, maybe that is why it looks
so sharp. :eek:

thanks minihune!!

I have 18's with 215/35 and I don't think the ride is rough. I like them a lot.
