    Rims!

    Hey just wondering if 18x7.5, 225/40/18 with a 38 offset will fit on my 03 galant. Its not lowered but i would like to lower it in the future. I read that i should stray off too far from the OEM offset but how far can i go?

    Here's the rims

    Dark gray, but it needs to be repainted since some of the paint is chipping off.
    What I want to paint it is a dark green, almost black.

    If you keep your g grey the black rims will be hot, but if you paint it green i don't know how well that'll look? But its your car do as you please as long as your happy that's what matters the most. :)

    Yeah, and money plays a big factor too. I may not be able to afford to repaint my whole car. But its on my wish list

    Nice rims and you should get them. They also would look nice if you kept your original color. My G is silver and I do want to repaint my "dark gray". I already have Black 18inch rims on mine as well.

    Dark grey? Bronze wheels would be tits.

    Staying on topic, yes 18x7.5, 225/40/18 will fit on stock with no rubbing. But once its lowered/dropped, no matter how low of a drop, you will need a camber kit and fenders rolled. Exspecially the rears. My offsets are +45 so it barely rubs on stock so I'm goign to assum 40 is the furthest.
