    one last question tho..i trying to buy the enkei EV-5 18x7.5 but the tire choices they were giving me at wheelsnext.com is only 225/45R18 not 225/40R18 like what reelax has recommended...would that be a problem?
    225/45r18 is too tall, your speedo will be off.

    8th Generation: (listed in italics are sizes that best fit)

    Original: 195/65-15 (24.98") **Original DE & ES sizing**
    Plus Zero: 215/60-15 (25.15")
    Plus Zero: 205/65-15 (25.49")

    Original: 205/55-16 (24.87") **Original ES V6, LS, and GTZ sizing**
    Plus One: 225/50-16 (24.86")
    Plus One: 215/55-16 (25.31")

    Plus Two: 225/45-17 (24.97") **Recommended upsize fitment
    Plus Two: 215/50-17 (25.46")
    Plus Two: 205/50-17 (25.07")

    Plus Three: 225/40-18 (25.09") **Recommended upsize fitment
    Plus Three: 215/45-18 (25.62")

    Plus Four: 225/35-19 (25.2") **Recommended upsize fitment

    Plus Five: 225/30-20 (25.31") **Recommended upsize fitment

    That is from our tire thread.

    225/40-18 is already bigger than stock so you do not want to go above that.

    Like I said, just call them when you order, pay the extra couple bucks, and get the right size, it will be much better for you

    why dont you just order 225/40-18 with them

    go on tirerack.com search wheels by vehicle and choose brand enkei performance

    go down to ev5 and then go shop for tires click custom size look for 225/40-18 add tires to cart. go to cart have tires mounted on rim for free then buy them.

    Tirerack.com only have 17" for that wheels.
    if i do that they don't consider them as a "combo/package" have to buy them separate, which means more money....which is stupid cuz they don't even give an option 225/40/18 as for tires...all of them are 225/45/18 with different factory names....

    ay caramba!
