Black rims on my Velocity Red

[Zarkaaus VRedM3]

I think I'm leaning towards 17x7 now, it would be +40 offset instead and comes out 100$ cheaper almost. I talked to the company and the 114.3 is just the metric measurement of the wheel, so don't need to make a special call about the order.

Oh i see. You'd save a lot more $ not having to buy new tires too.

I want to go 18" and safe to say 8" as well for the tire, so 18x8? The offset and such I am unsure of to get and as flush as I can with no rubbing. All the options on this site is confusing as well such as nut pattern? Help me out guys:

EDIT: linked fixed

I like those. My first choice would be Drag DR-31 18 x 8 with 48+ offset in black w/red stripe, but alas I can't find a set ANYWHERE. I'd even be willing to pay a little extra if I could find a set... (laughs)

Be sure when you get the wheels to take pictures. I'd like to see what it looks like since we both have the same color car.
