cmillz1331 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 I'm thinking about buying these new black and chrome wheels with some money that I got from scholarship. Let me know what you guys think. Also, they are 18" x 8" so its .5" larger on the width than the stock wheels. Any problem with that? I have to get new tires anyways so thats why I figured it would be a good time to buy these....will I have any problems finding tires for these? And will the stock lug nuts fit these wheels? Thanks for the help in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Monaghan Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 I recommed u save ur $ for 22s cuz the size of the wheel wells were made for em any other size doesnt look right imo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmillz1331 Posted September 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 I would love to have 22s but I'm worried about the mpg decrease and the speedo being off.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Monaghan Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 The speedo is the same cuz the tires are the same diameter not sure bout mpg loss? I havent notice it being any worse... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmillz1331 Posted September 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 anyone know what the size of the stock lug nuts are on the 07-10 models? I know the slots are 5x114.3 but the new wheels need 1/2" lug nuts and I'm not sure what the stock lug nut size is.....thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
