I recently, bought some (well not my money) sport edition E1 Wheels and sold the black bullits. These wheels are a inch bigger (18's) and i believe have a +35 mm offset, same bolt pattern at the bullits and the width is 8 inches. Need ideas on Tires and what color i should paint the wheels or leave them how they are.

Dont paint them, the look great as is. I believe the correct tire size you are looking for is 245/45/18s.

Also will i need to factor in if i decided to put my lowering springs on when i do my wheels. The springs are ebach and lower it about 1.3 inches 1.5 at the most
06-05-2012
they'll go lower than 1.5", trust me.
and yes, leave them silver. not only will they look better unpainted, but their resale value will remain proper.

the springs or wheels???
06-05-2012
as in which will go lower
06-05-2012
Also bio what tires should i get?? im not trying to break bank. keep it like 500-700 for set
06-05-2012
the springs will probably go around 2-2.5" fully dropped and settled.
and for that price range you've got a lot of choices in tires, hit up tire rack and go to town.

nankang NS-II

Are they good tires? hella cheap
06-06-2012
Correct, you get what you pay for, cheap tires are cheap tires.
They will be fine for dry and most wet situations. They are not a all season tire. Tread wear will not be very long either.
06-06-2012
well how many miles do you think theyl last
06-06-2012
because i found some for 100 a piece and they say the treadwear rating is about 9 outa 10 245/45R18 Nankang NS-II 24995001 BSW - Discounttires.com has the lowest prices on tires and wheels,
06-06-2012
The tread wear is 340AA.
Compare that to most tires that are atleast 400 to as high as 800ish.
400 is around 25-30k, 800 can be as high as 70k miles.

Close... if you buy them soon, NS-II - OnlineTires.com
is only $87.67 ea.
Get a quote for the total shipped to you, and then buy accordingly. Alot of places do "sell them cheaper" but you pay more in shipping so you get jacked without realizing. Be sure to check this.
