Post up your aftermarket wheels!!!

Wheels are 18x9 tires 33/12.50-18
It rubs on the wheel well, you would just have to cut out the plastic, fits well, slightly noise on the road and going over 80 mph makes the steering wheel shake a bit, I might need to get it re aligned.

 

What kind of lift

 

17x8.5 +0mm Pro Comp Rockwells..... I THOUGHT they were black.... but I also dont mind the "temporary bronze" edition

 

Those 16 or 17 inch?

 

I had my new wheels mounted at a dealer and they scratched one pretty bad. I noticed it on inspection. They replaced the wheel with a new one. But, they also damaged one of the OR wheels I was replacing. They also replace that wheel after considerable discussion. My advice is to take pictures of your new wheels and the wheels you are replacing prior to the install and make sure the service manager inspects wheels prior. Will make it easier discussion if things don't go well.

Very least it's very clean.. Lol

 

Post a pic with them installed. I'm really digging them.

 

I have these too.

 

I've had my 2010 for a few years now and just barely started making upgrades. The wheels/tires were first, next will be the head unit and then speakers. Speakers were the first on my list but a local shop told me there was nothing they could do since there's no space back there, yet my recent searching online showed people are actually doing this so the shop must just be lousy. Anyhow, here's my new wheels and tires (back one's missing a lug, snapped off removing the old wheels but getting it repaired this week):

They're 17's with no lift. The shop I went to thought they wouldn't rub after taking the mudflaps off, but there's still a little rub on the wheel well so they suggested cutting it. I'm a complete noob when it comes to cars/trucks/etc, though. I see MrRoboto a few posts up had to cut his, so I'm wondering what the proper way of doing this is. I mean, I can cut the area out but is it safe to just leave it exposed after, or do you cover the exposed area up with something?

Here's a pic, you can see the darkened tips where the tire rubs against, as well as part of the outer body:


Here's an underside view of the tire turned all the way:


As you can see, on a sharp turn it will slide over the outer plastic and rub on the inner wheel well (you'll have to forgive my ignorance if any of the terms I use are not accurate lol). My main concern is that if I don't cut that outer plastic down a bit, it might crack and break coming out of a tight turn one day. So, I figured I'd see what the experts here think. Any suggestions?

Can I ask what suspension you are using here?

I cut mine.....one other member used a heat gun to soften the plastic and push it back...
