My vote is hold on to the wheels until you can get some 245/255 tires on the rear(and maybe a little wider up front),small spacer if neeeded out back,and they'll look awesome.The wheels are sick,they just need a little work to get the right look on your car.

The stock 350s come with 18s stock, right? Lower, beefier tires, and spacers will be money

The wheels themselves look great though! I like that you went with something you don't typically see
HOLY JEBUS PUT ME ON BLAST SON.


I agree with Harley 100 percent. Those wheels look really good design wise, and the color is awesome. Spacers are your best friend in that situation.

Sorry!


But yeah,stretched tires just don't look good unless you're completely out flush with no fender gap at all.Spacered/hammered and you'd be good with the tires you have.But,with meaty tires a little wheel gap doesn't really stand out.

Yeah, I jumped on the 225s because they were the cheapest option at the time. I did a little research tonight and now have a better idea of what size tire I need to run. At the very least ill be going with a 245/40 all the way around.

Wheels look incredible, but yes, definitely need much beefier tires. Stretched tire on a raised car just doesn't look right. I'd throw some meats on them beeches!

Lol my car isnt raised at all, I just cant lower it anymore due to not wanting to tear up my expensive aps exhaust. I'm going to get new tires eventually, but for now my available finances will be going to guns and ammo.

I should have worded that differently...I didn't mean that you literally raised it, I just meant a not-lowered car. The only way stretch looks halfway decent is if they fill the fenders and if the car is dumped
