new wheels.

Well I have owned my 240 for about a year now and awhile back I got some new rims for it. I also tinted the windows, 20% on the front windows, 5% on the back sides, and a 5% tint strip. let me know what you think.

They are 18x7.5 wrapped with 215/35 falkens.

Not a fan of the wheels, and not enough tire. Get more tire back there! 245/45 atleast!
I woulda gone with wider wheels also. But I like the tint.

Well these are my temp wheels. I hated my stock rims(which are now drift wheels) But for 300 for rims and tires I couldn't say no. I have been tossing around the idea of painting them black. i'm not sure yet. but the next rim I order are 18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear with 3 inch lip rear and 2 inch front. but until then I am going to stick with these. I honestly don't know if I can clear the 245/45.

Yeah, my M30, which is of similar spec to the S13 is running 18x8.5 up front and 18x9.5 in the rear.

You gots the room my friend.

I'm with my buddy Shaban on this one, I'm not digging the wheels, but the tint looks cool!

If you get rid of those tires, send them to Adam (battosaii) and watch him BOIL them off, LOL!

you know I never thought of that and it doesn't sound bad at all. I would have them powdercoated so removing the tires is not going to be fun. find

I'm planning to find some badass honda driver with a sick ride yo and sell them to him.
