i'm sorry i made you guys misunderstand me......i'm actually paying for the wheels just that he said he could get me a good deal for them, and as far as size goes i have to tell him what i need. Sorry for the mistake. He told me the 18x9 has a 3 inch chrome lip once i heard that they were below 1000 i got excited because the Iforged wheels i wanted were that price for one.

nice wheels. I was looking at those myself but I was wondering if there is any benefit from running 18x8 in the front and 18x9 in the back?
