18x8's with Nitto 555's (245/40/18) on the front...18x9.5 with Nitto 555R's (285/45/18) on the rear. Gonna have to play with the stance a little to get it looking right. Sorry the pics were takin with a Iphone.

looks pretty good how's the fit on them front and back? what backspace did you go with? can you take some pics from the side view of the car?

18x8 with 4.5" bs and 18x9.5 with 5" bs. I'll take some more pics with a better camera. But they fit great and still have a lot of room. I wish Boss or coys made a 18x10 cuz they'd fit easy.

Your post is pretty timely. I'm considering a set. Not sure I'll have the brakes to due them justice though. I'll probably choose something with less open styling.

285-45-18 is a lot of tire, especially on a Roadrunner. I'd like to see how much clearance you have to the spring, and to the wheel lip.

Definitely need to drop the nose a bit on the stance.

It's a big tire fo sho..I have plenty of room from the wheel to the quarter panel mainly cuz the previous owner shaved off the "lip". It's close on the back side from the tire to the leaf spring but all good. Pay no attention to the cobwebs and dirt hanging off of everything..LOL.
