These are called Concept Neeper Haaz, 18x7 with 225/40/18 tire. i like this look cause it matches the showcar theme, rather than tuner/performance theme.

these turned out a lot less wide than i thought, but i plan to get some adapter spacers as well as droppin it on springs soon.

20s are gone, sold them. i gave 20s up actually, i would rather roll 18s on springs.

here is a photochop of what its gonna look like when i add 1" spacers and drop it on springs: then i will be happier...

yeah these wheels arent meant for stock height lol... more of a custom showcar/lowrider wheel.

well sorry i couldnt afford new wheels, this is the look im going for. i like the performance style look, but its never been for me. im goin for the shaved showcar look... and it will be better with my springs, spacers and shaved handles lol

Eh, the spokes are just a little too big but I don't think they look terrible. I'm excited to see the drop and the spacers.

I always liked the Neeper Haaz rims, but I agree they could be a little wider and theirs no doubt you need a drop. If I were you, I'd definately consider air. granted its alot more than drop springs, but its going to look a million times better with the wheels tucked in the fender wells as they will go.

still got mixed feelings about them. I think the drop(still don't think you should) might help out the look more.

thank you very much Rick, yeah your car is lookin sick also, i love your black/silver rims especially on a black car. we all have to meet again. and its weird cause i appreciate the comments, but i also love the hate! lol

and the car wont break front bumper aired out if i bagged it, its been done a lot to GAs with this kit. but like i said wont be anytime soon cause of cash reasons.

and hell, i grew up on lowriders so if i could juice this on hydros i would, who cares about the violence :)
