Gonna do something different, read and help

So, if you dont like the idea, dont post. I know 90% of you are going to say WTF, but im doing it to be different. Im sick of seeing the same old wheels on everything, so im going crazy.

Offroad wheels.
The sizes available in 18s isnt bad. liek 18x9 +18 and -12 on some procomps, 18x9 0 on Rockstars...all very workable to awesome fitment with spacers in the rear. 18x9 0 is about the most im going to fit on the laurel, so im cool with that. maybe a little more, but not by much.

So, what do you guys reccomend?
Right now im really just looking at Rockstars (KMC) becuase its all ive found
If you have OTHER sugestions let me know
i have about a week to order wheels, if i cant find something, then im stuck with like Schwert SC4s or something stupid like that

So be a part of something different, throw it up


AMENDED

IF YOU KNOW A WHEEL THAT IS OFF THE WALL, EASY TO ORDER, THROW IT UP
From spinners, to dish, to spoke. Im open to anything. Im bored of all the JDM fanboy wheels, had most of them, time for something new.
18x9 +0 at least

Cant help with other choices but that sounds like it might be something cool. Some of those designs are pretty out there, would look pretty crazy with a 215/35 stretched over it...

Yo, 9J -15 = 10J -2 if you are talking about lip/fender fitment
10J +3 = 9J -10....

Add half the width difference (in mm) to the offset if going from skinny-wide. Subtract half the width difference (in mm) if going from wide to skinny...

Centerline forged wheels. Under $1,000 for 18's. They have very, very low offsets. The wheels weight nothing. Very story. The can paint/brush/whatever you want to them.

Hell if it's in japan it'll be like JDM wheels here. I love the rockstars cause they chop chop chop when I had my jeep [commander] those in 22" were my first choice but at the time [right when the commander came out] KMC would not make them in 5x5.5 for me so I got something else instead.

You are thinking 18's?

A local guy has those on his 300C.

http://www.rockstarinc.ca/home.html go to products/vehicle gallery and its image 5.

Saw it inperson at a recent show and they look awesome. So meaty and aggressive.

As far as I know he had to have the hub shaved to get them to fit.

That is a DOPE 300C. It's like the complete opposite of the dub style 300 tuning.

Grant, complain to Apple. Flash is a major part of the internet, and they should have added that support in the latest update.

But it looks like that guy with the 300C took the mid offset option, cos the spokes have no concave and its fairly weak fitment; would look completely different with stretched tyres, camber and flushness

First - I think this a fun idea and know that your execution will be flawless.

However, have you given any thought towards some of the extreme German / European wheels that many in the 'dub scene are running?

Something like that would be cool... (by the way - I know I am missing some other rare and funky / cool European wheels here)
