(mega low profile tyres) The only problem is that it makes your brake discs look puney and even though your car may be lowered it still looks a bit odd. Stick to 18's trust me.

For rear, you can even go up to a 19x9.5 with the proper offset, and run a 265/30/19 tyre. Of course, you have to have the fenders rolled and shaved to avoid rubbing. I'm running 19x8.5 all the roung with absolutely no rubbing issues.
