Not considering 18's because I am fearful that the roads in Boston and MA would trash them.

Default Kosei K1 TS- They're cheap, very light and strong.

By the way, hello- I hear Boston Driver was going to advise you about the looks of my spoiler. What did you decide to do?

Hey. Check the New England forum. I posted a note to you re: your spoiler and my new door blades.

Default I've been happy with my Fliks: Cheap, lighter than stock, and strong (Detroit roads)....

The only complaint is that my first set had a bad paint application. Looked good but started peeling. I only have 1 week on the new wheels and so far so good.
