I guess. Im not replacing the wheel, im having it repaired, which would likely cost the same even if it was an 18". And the wheel would have bent even it if was an 18" w/ a 40 profile. It was such a big hole that it made my glovebox come open and litereally made your teeth chatter. Suprised it didnt blow the tire honestly.

Sure does suck that im rolling to Nopi on stockers today. $2,000 wheels/tires sit in a garage for no one to appreciate.

Thanks a lot, I busted my ass to get Rota to make them. Sorry for invading the 19" wheel club though.

As for the replacement comment, I'd be screwed since they were a 1 off run of 8-10 sets.

No rubbing issues what so ever. Even with a passenger.

The rims are rc2s. It's called a staggered fitment. Thin in front, wider in the rear. (sounds like this girl I knew once... anyways!!) That's what it is.
