18x9.5 Konig Beyonds with Falken 275's all the way around. I love the way they came out.

Very NICE!!! My Beyonds should be here by the weekend. I got 255/45-18 and 295/45 rubber on mine. I'll have to post mine also. I love the way your car looks with the chin spoiler also.

What is the largest rubber one can fit on 18 x 9.5? I have 275 x 40 on there but what to know if I could go bigger?

The 18x9.5 wheels that I have coming have 295/45 rubber on them and I have seen in other posts that some have this same size. Some claim that if you lower the car with this size tire that you may have a problem with rubbing on the outside of the wheel fender well, but I think it depends on the wheel and if it has the correct back spacing.

SaleenPowr, couple of questions about your car. Have you lowered it any, and is that chin spoiler the painted black version or just raw?

Very nice choice of wheels! Looks fantastic! You must be a photographer as your photos have excellent exposure and great composition.

Thank you very much. What's funny is that I just got my first digital camera last weekend and this was my very first time taking pictures like this. I guess I did it right.
