I prefer the look of the 20's. But it's your car, so if you like them, who cares what anybody else thinks about it. Enjoy your new wheels.

Meh. Seen worse but why pay money to downgrade? I feel like that price isn't very cheap.

Looked so much better with the Oem. Those were not cheap imo, i thought you were going to say you payed $800. you want lighter wheels for a great price get some Tsw 18 or 20'' nurburgring or interlagos

I moved from 20's to 18's. Now I'm using continental DWS.


moda MD14 in machined with light grey accent finish, right? When I try to search wheels for 2010 2SS, no 18" or 19" wheels come up. When I try to search for 245/55-18 tires for these wheels, no Continental tires come up. Am I missing something here? If you're going for this LS/LT/non-RS look, you achieved it.

you spent 1500 to save money vs spending 1000??? seems like you spent 500 more...maybe i am bad at math, lol. and in a place that doesnt get much snow...

sorry man, not diggin them at all - best bet for you wouldve been to grab some used tires to get you through the winter until you get the 20s you want in the spring. or just get the new tires now and put them on your new 20s...either way, cheaper and better looking than those. then again this is all just my opinion which means nothing on YOUR car, lol

I was told that when I go to 20's from my 18's I will notice a difference in the ride. I was told I will like the ride with 18's better. I think the 20's look better but am hoping the ride won't be too much different.
I like the way my car rides now and it sounds like you really like the ride since you have switched to 18's. Its good to hear the opinion of someone who has switched down. Thanks for posting. Not a big fan of the wheel you chose, but it doesn't look bad.

If you really wanted to save money and wanted 18s, why didn't you just go with the stock steelies or 1LT wheels? You could have got them extremely cheap and be able to rotate as well. I like the 18" wheel look and went from my steelies to the LT's. It was a big weight savings and it was a great investment for me. I was able to keep my same tires so it only ended up costing me 400 dollars after it was all said and done.
