CSL 18's

lumbergh · 03-30-2006, 12:33 PM

I know everyone here is a fan of 19's and so am I. However I'm thinking 18's for a little more cushion and a little less weight.

Does anyone know what the 18's weigh?

I like the CSL reps, but would they look dumb in:

18x8.5 +40 and 9.5 +22 or +40 staggered

I'll have H&R sport springs on by the time I get the wheels.

I'm assuming I would need spacers for the rear?

What are your thoughts?

Thanks for any input.

My car gets here in a month. You've quoted my first upgrade exactly. 18" Staggered w/spacers and H&R's.

Have you seen any pictures of 18" csl's?

I'm guessing it doesn't look that different from the 19's but I want to make sure before I do this.

I believe the original came in only 19's so I am trrying to decide if 18"csl's would be cheesy.

This is my favorite wheel without a lip.
