18's are pretty big to fit inside the 3gee (i mean to match the height of the stock wheels and not be too wide you would have to get something like 195/40R18 and even thats a little taller than the stock tires would be)
and IMO those rims a way too big, the most i would go is 16's
Are the ones you're looking to buy even 4-lug?
I would for that price you could trade them, they do look good just may be too big and make your 3rd gen ride like a three eyed goat wagon

18s are great. not the most comfortable ride but they fit and with the proper tire selection can keep the speedo just fine. I like the rubber band look myself. Im running 215/35-18 and they look great.
Get em' you can ride around atlanta and have a " donk" car!!!!

yeah...but in 15 inch you can start to get a nicer tire for better grip...my car had 14 inch falkens and i went with the new 15inch 912s and the 912s grip a whole lot better
i have a set of 18's with 215/35/18 tires,they stick like glue to the road,but the ride is kinda like a goat cart !
now i just ride stock. i will get some 16's someday.:rly:
the 912's would grip better if the tire was wider theres really no reason that the tire would grip more on a 15 rather than a 14... you can get 14" azeni's still and that's all the tire you would really ever need.
what the fuck is a goat cart?
goat kart....must me a north west thing
