Segway thread: Guys with 18's and lowered, post pics!

Saw the 20" thread and figured the 18" guys were being left out. I personally think 20's are too big for daily use.

Here's mine.

18x9/10 Konig Stampedes with Nitto 555 tires.
Lowered on HR SS Springs.

If I must! I definitely agree that 18's are perfect for our cars. I just can't get into 20's. It's the perfect balance of metal and rubber.

Nice pics. I think that 19's are the perfect size for this car, so between 18 and 20 you've got to make a choice. Anyway, here's mine.

Thanks. I just wish somebody made replicas so I could fit a bigger tire. IMO it handles better due to the wider wheel base. I've had the spacers on for close to 6 months with no with no problems.
